Boy, we love Trains! (and churches)
We explored Goulburn today. We will not be here on Sunday so we had to start our trip with a visit to the Cathedral. Before Canberra was selected as the Capital, the town of Goulburn was the Center of business for the region, so the Cathedral was built here, making it a city. Even though…
