| Grazing Cattle beside the walk into town |
After travelling through Bairnsdale and stopping to get Wayne's phone working again, we decided to head on through Sale to Rosedale where we had read about Willow Park. This is situated 1.8 klms out of the historic little township so we walked over the stock/walking bridge and amongst the paddocks of cattle to see the history of the township. By the time we settled in for the night there were about seven other overnighters in the park.
Interesting monument in the middle of town remembering Patrobas the Melbourne Cup Winner in 1915 which was the first lady owner winner. The horse also won the Caulfield Cup and the Derby all in the same year. Very interesting reading all the historic signage all around town as we walked. Great exercise for the mind and body in this cold weather. Took the brollies as the showers are short and sometimes sharp!
