Kawashiwi River Wayside Park

Today's trip was to Winton Wetlands and on to Glenrowan - Ned Kelly Country.
We stopped at the wetlands and saw how dry the area is. Lots of dead trees, a few patches of water close by with a backdrop of Lake Mokoan and in the far distance, some of the mountains around Bright.
We went on the the cafe where the first art piece is on display. This pays tribute to the Yorta Yorta people and their use of possum fur for their cloaks.
There are sculpture pieces around the park however, with the warmer weather and our unsuitable footware, we decided not to chance meeting any local snakes and will return for a better look next time.
We enjoyed the view whilst having morning tea in the cafe then decided to try the Black Dog Brewery for lunch. After travelling up a long dirt road we found it but they don't serve food and it wasn't open for tasting being a Wednesday so we left and headed up to Glenrowan.
Glenrowan is Ned Kelly country and they have lots of things celebrating this famous outlaw.
Well, the pub wasn't open, the cafe wasn't open, one shop only sold pies, another only icecream, scones, jam & cream so we went to the bakery for some variety.
Our trip home, courtesy of the navigation system tried to take us to Yarrawonga so we went back to Glenrowan and along the way we had come.
Travelling these roads are very quiet and at one shady part we noticed a lace monitor crossing the road in front of us and it went straight up the tree.
Then it was home for a rest before dinner out at the Bowling Club again.Read more
