March 2003 - Walhalla

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.

This website was taken down in 2014, but in 2023 I decided to resurrected it and bring it back online, as it is now over 20 years old, expect bugs and features to no longer work as they once did.

The website is 90GB in size and contains approx 30,000 photos taken by us between 2003-2011, it is hosted at home on an old HP Proliant NAS running Lotus Domino 8.5 and spanning across multiple databases.
