For the second year in a row Canberra's flower festival, Floriade, has had to be cancelled. Lots of the plantings have been taken out to suburban centres but there are lots of large flower beds still in Commonwealth Park where Floriade is usually held. The big difference is that the festival displays, stalls and rides are not here. Many Canberrans are making use of the fine days we are having and walking and picknicking in the park, making sure that outdoor COVID rules are being followed. I love tiptoeing through the tulips and hiding in the hyacinths, in fact I just love flowers. And yes, that squirtey thing in the first image is the Captain Cook Jet.
