A group of us travelled through Bendigo to get to the 3 day Echuca Riverboat Music Festival. You have to stop off in Bendigo and check out what’s happening at the Gallery…as it happened Archibald prize winner, Ben Quilty, exhibiting some of his “Rorschachs”, depicting picture book landscapes scenes that belie their more sinister history. And Arthur Boyd’s Bride on a fridge!

Then some lunch at the Dispensary Enoteca in Chancery Lane (a tiny jewel that sparkles to the beat of global wines, boutique beers, coffee aromas and inspired food).
