Castlemaine, Vic

We stayed in Castlemaine last night at Australia's equivalent of a KOA but much nicer sites and much quieter. Today we are getting more caught up with stuff like laundry, internet/email and supplies. We also scouted a site to park tonight up in an area referred to as a "Pine Plantation". It is full of pine trees (no Eucalyptus) but we don't know the history of the area. We will ask here at the library.

While at our last site at Warburtons Bridge we soaked up some sunshine early in the morning. It was sunny but chilly.
Early morning dose of sun!
Trox went on a ride while I took a nice strolled and talked to some people who came in next to us midday. Trox found this pretty neat mushroom. Looks like it should have a leprechaun under it.
On the way from the Bridge back to the Springs to have breakfast we crossed a railroad and I was able to get a picture of this great road sign.
While having breakfast these little guys came to visit. They are very hard to photograph and I lucked into this one. They are all over the place but are NEVER still for more than a second or two.
Superb Fairy Wren
This morning after getting laundry done and scouting for a place for tonight we went to lunch and sat up on a roof terrace. On the roof next door was this little guy guarding the neighborhood.
