Echuca is having a free Family Fun Day at Rotary Park on the 12th June from 1000 to 1700... seems its a LWE in Victoria.
Attractions on the day will include live music, miniature railway, historic vehicle displays, animal nursery, Echuca Moama Men's Shed displays and sales, vintage machinery, community group exhibitions, kids entertainment and BBQ.
The Steam Rally has had to be cancelled, Echuca is a great place to occupy a few days with a Chocolate Shop, Holden Museum and Paddle Steamers and this will make a LWE most enjoyable I reckon........... the miniture railway is fantastic....

Blue dog been wandering Victoria for decades, Kryal Castle when they were still laying the bricks, Sovereign Hill when it had dirt streets and horses, Point Cook even before I had the a RAAFie Hat, drove the Hume Hwy when it went thru towns and it was barely wide enough to pass a truck, sliding down the tram lines trying to stop my motorbike, many memories of the things that make Victoria, even kept visiting after I rescued a fair Victorian Damsel, who didn't know she needed it....... The joys of riding a motorbike from Melbourne to Cribb Point in the middle of winter, stupid thing to do.... Grampians in Winter, very dumb.............
Trouble with Point Cook is the location, when I drove the RAAF truck there and Laverton I just couldn't get out of the place quick enough............
In essence a nice place to visit but QLD is the place to live............... :D :D :D :D :D :D
