AVOCA , ST ARNAUD, NULLAWIL & SEA LAKE
We left Ararat this morning and headed towards Avoca, a small town in the Pyrenees Shire with a population of about 1,200. It was a lovely drive (apart from the wind) as we drove between the mountains of the Grampians and the Pyrenees...such a pretty drive.
Gold was first discovered in Victoria here, in the Pyrenees mountains of 1849.
They have a lovely free camp in town by the river...we didn’t stay as we had a few more towns to see but I found this lovely home beside the river.....
Would loved to have seen inside....
So next town was St.Arnaud...another small town in the Wimmera region...old pubs...and old town halls...
The sky is a great indication how cold it was...so a quick walk around the town, back in the warm caravan, made some lunch and off again..
We drove through a few more older towns, Donald, Wycheproof, and a little place called Nullawil...
Another great piece of Silo Art .......loved it!
Then....on to Sea Lake...and more Art Work!
Just in awe as you stand in front of these stunning pieces of art. Just the logistics of it all is amazing....and the end result...standing there and taking it all in.
We are staying at a small “caravan park” provided by the council...$10 @ night...and moving on in the morning.
It’s been another great day....loving this life!
And found this little bit of wisdom from Wendy... in a shop window in a tiny town.....
On ya Wendy!!!
