Catherine, Caitlin and I took the opportunity of the good weather to take a visit to Walhalla
Walhalla is a historic town 155 kms from home which after the discovery of gold in 1863 Walhalla thrived as one of Australia's richest towns with over 4000 people living in the area at its peak in the 1880s. When gold ran out in 1914 the decline was rapid, and for most of the 20th century Walhalla was frozen in time.
Electricity was only connected in 1998, but now many of its original features are being faithfully restored and opened to visitors.
