    Day 27

    July 30, 2019 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 11 °C

    Wow how cold gotta love Victoria’s weather, only 13 degrees today with a very fresh breeze, suited up with some warm clothes and headed off to the Pioneer Settlement for the day. What an amazing display of old time gone by it is a small town with working blacksmith, wood turning, printers, lollie shop and music shop. A big display of old machinery and buildings fully replicating the old way things were done. Had a good chat with the blacksmith who showed me how to make a few things and some good tips and advice on metal working, had morning tea and lunch at the cafe which was good and then in the afternoon we went on a paddle steamer ride on the PYAP on the Murray River, no longer steam driven it is powered by a Diesel engine but still gives you the idea of how long it took to get any where or wait for supplies to come down the river, things are way easier now, spent most of the day there with no problems, in the van for a few drinks tonight will do a mini pack up ready for an early morning getaway tomorrow ⏰Read more
