Adelong Gold Fields and the return of the Dog on the Tucker Box.

Hi lovelies,

It is a few days since we went paid a visit to the Adelong Falls Gold Mine outside Tumut, but I have been a bit under the weather so only sharing now.

The town of Adelong is just west of Tumut and is a lovely little town. We visited the Gold Mine ruins and had a wander around and check out the creek and the ruins.

A lot of work has been done to make the ruins safely accessible for visitors. Walking tracks and signed areas make it easy to find things.

It was great to walk around and check out some of the working of the days when the gold mine was a working operation. The site office.

One of the water wheels.

The Managers house and garden.

The furnace and the chimney in the background. They are a long way from each other.

The river was really pretty and a little chilly.

We had a great time and I would recommend it as a place to visit.

We left Tumut on Saturday and traveled through Gundagai. There were areas on the road where the fog was really thick.

We were fortunate that this was the day that the Dog was being returned to his resting place on the tuckerbox. There were lots of people around to see him back where he belonged.

All for now lovelies.

Stay safe and keep enjoying life.

Love us.

It was very smooth no seasickness this time :) We got on the 4x4 wheel bus and headed inland to Lake Mackenzie. This was a very picturesque spot. The water was very cool and the sand as white as we've seen it. After this we headed to Central station , the old tree clearing head quarters. Next we headed for Lake Wobby which was a 45 min trek in and 45 out across lots of sand. It sits on a big sand-blow which will eventually disappear. A small fresh water lake with a couple of cat fish in it. Then off to our accommodation for the night. The next day we headed out to run the beach pretty much all day heading all the way up to Champagne Pools. We eventua...
