Spent a pleasant day in Allora, nice sunny weather, so went for a walk through the town.
The children of the local school had made a lot of poppies for next Saturdays' 100th Gallipoli anniversary.
This fence is right next to the Allora War Memorial Park, where there are memorials for the Boer War
as well as WWI, it is amazing to see the number of men that went to war from this relatively small town, there are multiple names for several families, some as many as 4!
then there is a memorial for WWII, far fewer names and this one also serves for Malaya, Korea and Vietnam.
At the back of this park is another park with a footbridge that goes to the local golf course, all very green, something we don't see in Bendigo this time of the year.
Finished off the day with a nice dinner in the Railway Hotel, roast chicken and vegies, yum!
