Tiki tour

The car is packed and I have picked up Raewyn from the airport and we have travelled from Melbourne to Benalla. From there we headed north and found four silos on our way.
leaving Benealla we stopped for a look at this beautiful sculpture 


This was created by several different artists.
Our first Silo was in Goorambat
This was the view as we drove down the road
And then the Silo
This is on private property
Check out the selfie queens!! 😁
This was also at Goorambat. Love these horses, Sam, Banjo and Clem.

The painting was beautiful.
We found a little Cafe down the road, the loos were painted too
How good is this. 
From there we went to the next Silo at Devenish
This one remembers nurses in the wars
and the Lighthorse.
the toilet block
Great old buildings here
this building was at the back of the pub.
Then we moved onto St James, the home of the man who started Coles supermarkets, his original store is still in the town.
There was a series of Adventure Labs along this run of silos, but in Devenish the WiFi wasn't working for me, so we have a gap in the answers.
From here we went on to Tungemah
Love the dancing Brolgas
love the Aussie birds
The information centre was open and they had a gift shop so we paid them a visit and got some goodies, the outside was also painted by the same artist who did the silos
She also did a painting at the pub
Isn't this a beautiful building -  Check out the view down the road
I think that probably is enough for this post, more soon. Happy travels.

  8. Not nearly enough! I can imagine all the chattering and laughing you were doing in between the beautiful silos. We have nothing like that here. The travel is at least half the fun!
