Day 9 - Thursday, October 16, 2008


Alvis people enjoying lunch at the Paramoor Winery, near Kyneton, Victoria

Today was the first full sunshine warm driving day and was absolutely splendid.

Our drive took us from Ballarat to Daylesford, a village in the heart of Victoria’s spa country (and allegedly the gay capital of Victoria), for morning tea and onto the Paramoor Winery for lunch.

Following an excellent lunch organized by the Country Women’s Association, and the Paramoor Winery’s owners, Will & Cathy Fraser, the afternoon’s drive to Bendigo included a cryptic quiz of sights along the way, primary designed to ensure that the lead footed Alvis drivers took it a little easier while attempting to answer the questions.

Total miles for the day: 137.

Cumulative miles on the tour so far: 970

Ah, Daylesford. You must have felt quite at home. Any statues of Gra Gra?
