I FORGOT TO MENTION...

I forgot to mention that while we were staying at Ararat we drove to Halls Gap market on the Sunday, not a very big market, there were lots and lots of people there because it was a long weekend in Victoria - as I think it was in Tassie also.
On the way home to the van we called in to Stawell, and to the oval where the famous Stawell Gift is held. The oval featured some beautiful gates installed as a memorial to World War 1 soldiers, very picturesque and with lovely rose gardens on one side.
We visited a Uniting Church with some beautiful coloured glass windows and a gold mine from which 2 million ounces of gold has been extracted over the years.
