BENDIGO VICTORIA

Bendigo was originally a gold rush boom town in Victoria, it's home to the mid-1900s Central Deborah Gold Mine. Vintage Trams run through the city and yes we took a ride. Magnificent old buildings line all the streets. A great place to visit, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

 The Ulumbarra Theatre rises from within the walls of Bendigo's former Sandhurst Gaol into a state of the art performance centre. It was fantastic. We would have loved to go to a show there but nothing on at the time. How they mixed the old gaol with the new modern additions was just brilliant. The elder member of the Chookpen would have loved a sing there......... He did squeak in a few notes.
