What I love about Bendigo is the way it changed from tents to High Victorian architecture in a few years. I have several hundred pics of old Bendigo from my 2 visits last year. My friends were living in a decrepit old weatherboard cottage but are now renting a more modern place while waiting for the builders to finish relocating their new old house, a Federation house that was moved from a demolition site in Melbourne.

And my friends have one of those holes on their land - tho it was filled in years ago! I was fascinated by all the filled in holes around Bendigo & the graphic in the Museum showing the extent of the mines under Bendigo.

We're eagerly anticipating the cooler weather.
