    Our daughter especially enjoyed the visit to the mock-up gold mining town. It was interesting to hear the history and the impact of the Australian gold rush on the region and the nation. Also surprised to learn that there is still the occasional large nugget found by someone using a metal detector earlier this year a “grapefruit-sized nugget” found by someone right in his caravan (RV) park.
