Just a few photos from the tour..
I arravid at Warburton on Tuesday.. Too zonkedout from driving to d much the rest of the day. Wednesday i done of a bit of shopping down the street then we headed up to the redwood forest about 7k out of town.
These trees where planted as an experiment to see how the Canadian Redwoods would handle ausralian conditions.. You can se from the pix they done alright aye....

I was a bit concerned when we came across these giant "Nests" on the forest floor...Didnt phase some of the tourists...

I was waiting for some sort of prehistoric buzzard to come swooping down and tear em to shreds...
Fortunately we all escaped unharmed....

More coming..

Lovely van park with excellent camp kitchen...
No sign of rain .. just cool of a night and then followed by days averaging around 28 degrees... terrific.

Now that I have had time to reflect on the "Bigger than Texas farewell to the Panno Tour"
I would firstly like to thank K and C of the Bees for all their effort in planning and providing a Tour that was filled with interest and views of a beautiful part of Australia even though it was in Victoria. We saw so much "STUFF" that even Denise was lost for words, almost!!
I thorght that El Dorado was where John Wayne was the Sheriff not where there was a huge dredge!!
Rattcliffe had to have a lie down after going into the forest after a very big drink, so many trees and toooo small a tank!!
My only drama was an early morning visit to the toilet to be confronted by a horific scene, with therapy I should be ok.
Thank you to everyone for having the pleasure of my company and making Pamela and Rattcliffe most welcome.
Looking forward in a few years to the "Look what the Kaybees have done with the new place Tour"

The happy Tourorwrist.
