Port Fairy

Port Fairy has a lovely golf course situated about 6kms from the centre of town, and that is where I headed. Even though it was overcast, and there was a little bit of light rain around, I made my way to the course. It looked good...but there were lots of people around.

In another situation it might have been great. It was a VGA Seniors event running over two days - with shotgun starts. Course closed! Port Fairy Golf Club will have to wait for another day.
Their practice facilities got a bit of use though. Having travelled all this way in hope it seemed appropriate to ask permission and do some work on my short game. Yes there was a little bit of drizzle, but the day was warm, and I really didn't get that wet.

Later, when Beth had recovered from my extended absence, we did a little bit of sightseeing, and drove around the area.

Yes, we are back in Victoria. It was the cusp of summer - the skies were grey, and there were regular showers.

Yes, we were glad to be in Port Fairy, for that night there was heavy rain around Melbourne and a storm that ripped through Blackburn and caused a fair bit of damage.

The slogan on our number plate says it all - Victoria, the place to be. Yeah, right!
