  • After finally getting over our period of Covid while on the Great Ocean Road, we move onto Haddon to a donation free cost camp which is only a few kilometres out of Ballarat. While there we check out the sites of Ballarat before moving to Bendigo where we book into the Golden Nugget Caravan Park for two nights and explore what Bendigo offers.

    thank you for this trip down memory lane as it is many years since I have been to both places. The last time I saw begonias that beautiful was in Tasmania in 2011. Such glorious flowers. The first time I saw them was in Plymouth in England growing outside in pots & in a lot of the villages in 1987 & fell in love with them but you need the cooler climate to grow them successfully. Love them dahlias but yes, they looked at the end of their prime but if I can look that good at the end of my prime, then I will be more than happy!! 🤣

    I was in Bendigo for the Easter festival last year. It's a lovely old place. It took 200yrs to finnish the Cathedral we were told. Yes it's a Lotus flower, we watched them build it.

      Thank you Glenn, we have tried to visit Tasmania a few years ago but missed out on a booking schedule. We will be retired from the workforce when we go over in February of next year so time will not be an issue for us. We are looking forward to going over there.

    hello, it is very relaxing to watch your videos
    It is always a bit like coming home to me because I visited Australia twice in 1984 and 1998 with relatives in Dandenong. but especially the quietness of filming and recording is simply the most relaxing. wonderful!!

    Thanks for the memories;
    Living in the S.E we use to get up very early to have a day in Ballarat for the Begonia Festival
    Our GPS got us misplaced in the middle of the night back of Bendigo scary - en route to Qld!
    Our then young son got into a fountain in Bendigo - chasing money! A lady made a dash for a cab - purse flew open - notes everywhere
    Thanks also for the what to see in Ballarat- we are staying 2 nights pre Tassie
    Great to hear you are both OK, safe travels
    P.S. viewers may need a fox explanation - had a vision of foxes flying and not the aerial ones ( problems with them in NQ) Jan Adelaide

    • @justcruisinwithmicksally837
      @justcruisinwithmicksally837  Год назад

      We would have called them bats but all of the signs there referred to them as foxes so that is how we presented it. Would rather call them flying bats but never mind.
      Enjoy your trip to Tassie, we go that way in February next year.

Quelle quantité d'or as-tu trouvée?🤔 Merci pour cette nouvelle vidéo. Chaque consultation ressemble à des vacances. Bonne continuation et au plaisir d'une prochaine vidéo toujours aussi bien présentée (digne d'un professionnel, assurément). JPhB
