Pipe tour of Victoria


This was a 1850's house we stayed at in Dunolly, Victoria.
Open fire place and freezing cold.

Pipe tour of Victoria

The town of Majorca is in central Victoria.
Now a ghost town, Majorca was founded in 1863—towards the end of the Victorian gold rush—after two prospectors struck gold at nearby McCallum’s Creek. Two months later, there were 250 stores and restaurants catering to a population of around three to four thousand, although many shops and residents soon returned to nearby Maryborough.
My wife Andrea's great great Grandfather was the Mayor at one time.

Beautiful gardens and great restored carriages to stay in.
