Ballarat..gold diggin country !
14 k bike ride to and around Lake Wendouree.. then finish with a drink or two in the miners bar and the original George Hotel !!
Next day was spent at Sovereign Hill .. a step back in time to the gold rush days.. was really well done with the buildings and actors! Underground Gold mine tour, panning for gold and a late night light show "Blood on the Southern Cross" made for an entertaining day !
Lake Wendouree .. 6 km circuit .. nice spot .. had to wear gloves tho !
In my defence, I have 3 jumpers on !!!!!!
Lydiard street .. full of buildings of late 1800's.. all heritage listed
Sturt street.. main drag of Ballarat

Day at Sovereign Hill .. re anacting the goldrush days of the 1800's.. really well done
