I'm thinking you'd be right !!! No doubt it is as you say, though...you just get used to it. Maybe I'd have to inch south, little by little, each year and then, by the time I got to Tassie, I'd be right.
Not sure if I've mentioned it but I HAVE been to Canberra at the beginning of winter (June) and while it was mind-numbingly cold outside, I do remember just walking around indoors in just a suit jacket and skirt (I attended an education conference and a national awards ceremony at Parliament House...Australia's version of the White House, I'd guess you'd say, for the benefit of non-Aussies...very swish!).
I have heard many people say that when you visit Canberra in winter you get a small snapshot of what it would be like in Canada (as I have never been to Canada, I can't confirm or deny that observation!) but the trees and their autumn colours etc were beautiful, despite my being in a city centre!
Great pic, Nuytsia, despite it making me feel cold just by looking at it! *heads off to make a hot cup of tea*
