Hamilton Victoria, Wool Capital of the world!






So they call themselves. We did see a lot of sheep, and it looks good grazing land around here. But everywhere we've been has been green and it seems a bit dry here comparatively. They have the BIG WOOL BALES.
We stayed out at Wannon Falls which are part of the volcanic region we are travelling through. We treked up a volcano, climbed down in Lava Tubes and saw the drystone walls the settlers had to erect if they wanted stock to be able to traverse the paddocks. We started to see more fellow travellers around here. Marion saw her first snake- an olive/brown thing!! Chris was hoping to catch trout- no luck
