It is pity you didn’t speak to someone who knows Maffra and your information would be more correct and more interesting. You have only just touched on the history of this beautiful town. Lived there for 28 years and ex Chamber of Commerce President . The Chamber was the beginning of that magnificent park by the river. To my knowledge there has never been a house where that chimney is.

Made me appreciate our town a little more but have to say ‘ nobody died in the balcony collapse ‘ a lot of lifelong injuries but no deaths

I loved Auckland. I was there 30 years ago.

Wow... great tour of Maffra. You walked past Dr Dempster's former rooms. What looked like a church used to be the Maffra Methodist Church (until joined with the Uniting Church).

A very enjoyable video about Maffra, Pierre. It's a pity the woman at the Information Centre did not mention the biggest tourist attraction in Maffra being the Gippsland Vehicle Collection museum. It attracts visitors from all over Australia as well as overseas. th-cam.com/video/RFY_xRGrbJ8/w-d-xo.html. Here is the story of the Metropolitan Hotel balcony collapse in January 1996. th-cam.com/video/ZvcbotH_GKI/w-d-xo.html

Maybe that’s just how it looks after a big footie match?

Pity you didn't go to the cemetery to visit Bunyip's most famous residents, ""The Legendary Giants of Gippsland". Google search this title for the full story or visit the photo display at the "Robin Hood Hotel", once owned by Clara Snell the largest of the siblings. Clara, Anna & Tom Snell performed around the world in the mid 1800s as Giants. Clara died in 1914 at the age of 41, Anna in 1930 at the age of 54 and Tom died in 1949 at the age of 72. All three are buried in the Bunyip Cemetery. "........ The funeral of Miss Clara Snell, Gippsland's giantess, took place at Bunyip on Monday last. The remains of the deceased, weighitig about 30 st., were placed in a coffin 7 feet long, 3 feet wide, and 2 feet deep. The coffin would not fit in the hearse, so the remains were taken to the cemetery in the spring cart in which the deceased and her sister had travelled through the country when on show. The hearse was also engaged, and headed the cortege to the cemetery empty. The heavy coffin required six men to carry it from the cart to the grave side. Eight men lowered it with four ropes to the grave, amongst the men being the deceased's brother..."

I always stop in Yarragon and grab a chunky steak pie at the bakery. Yummo!

The first thing that popped into my head was... isn't that a swamp creature? Now you have to see if there is a town called Drop Bear.

Great to see the towns i normally drive straight past. We all need to slow down and appreciate them. Love the channel.

Thanks Pierre and Donna. I enjoy your adventures.

Modern generations would be offended by Shakespeare, if they understood him.

Cracking job Pierre

If you want, I can take you across the lake in my 8x8 amphibious atv...

I hate this boring old tiny town

I very much appreciate your effort with this video. I enjoyed it and your wise words for others enjoying our beautiful countryside, thank you.

You’re always in the shed or out exploring. Does the Misses beat you? 👊 😢

I actually lived in the old timber pub for around 2 years

What about one on the past of the pub that will suprise a few people

Grew up and got married in this beautiful little town. Thank you for the video

Thanks for featuring Boolarra so well. Lovely town in a beautiful part of Gippsland. Did you get a hamburger at the Boolarra store? They make some of the best hamburgers around.

In the states we have heritage properties known as historical landmarks. Sometimes upkeep is unaffordable to the owners because only certain craftsman and companies are authorized to perform repairs to them. So, they rot and fall down instead.

That was good to see mate thanks

Reporting for duty, Sir!

I see the Grand Ridge brewery went into VA not long after we visited the pub/town, great to see it's pulled through. It's a nice little country town .
