Rinadeena, Rack & Rainforest

Today we went to Queenstown to journey the
Rinadeena, Rack & Rainforest trip on a steam train. We got to pan for gold and although unsuccessful it was very enjoyable. We then headed to our next stop Wayatinah.

Although it felt like our hands were freezing off, the gold panning was lots of fun and we plan on doing some more fossicking later on the trip. It felt pretty special to go on the steam train with the kids. Henry was being cheeky and showing off being silly to the little girls behind us which was very sweet.

I loved going on a train ride and having the opportunity to pan for gold. I definitely caught the fever and I am ready to strike it rich . I thoroughly enjoyed the historical tour and information provided about the rack and pinion historical engineering design, allowing a steam locomotive to climb hills up to a 1 in 8 ratio climb. I also enjoyed playing and tickling Henry and watching him fluff on Grandad. - Luke

Today my favourite thing was going on the steam train and I liked to have a baby chino with marshmallows, rocky road and cookies . I also like cuddles with dad, mum and Henry and stitch. - Adelaide
