Birthday Activity

As you would be aware, reaching a point where one can apply for the Old Age Pension is an event to be marked with due ceremony!  After many years of dry winters, we have finally had some rain so it was decided that we should  check out the Maroondah Dam as it was likely to be full.  When we arrived we found that it was overflowing.  Joy and Rapture! Although it had occasionally overflowed in the past 10 years, I had not seen the event since I was a boy.


We then had to check out the spillway


Then the Lookout over the Dam.


Following our exertions we retired to Healesville which has a number of good eateries.  We found a place that offered an excellent Kangaroo main meal that sustained us until we got home.
