King and Flinders Islands with Trade Travel
Our group enjoyed hearing about and observing farm life on
King Island while enjoying rustic country
meals prepared with
famous King Island produce. On Flinders Island we marvelled at
pure white sands, aqua
water and mountains that stretched to the clouds. Scenery that makes Flinders Island
so beautiful and truly a
Bass Strait gem.

Whats been happening in July? We attended a Probus Information Day in Leumeah which for both ourselves and probus was exciting as this was one of the first in NSW coming out of the lengthy covid lockdowns. An informative and fun day had by all attending. Thank you to Monika Prasad from Probus South Pacific and her team for making this day so successful. It was fabulous to all catch up after such a long time :)

The Probus Club of Tuggeranong hosted a Trade Travel four day trip to Tumut, home of the Falling Leaf Festival in late April. Many A.C.T. Probus Clubs joined in this adventure to have fun, to see the wonders and the interesting sights in and around the area of Tumut and Tumbarumba. We strolled among our legendary Australian Test Cricket Captains situated in the parkland of Cootamundra, birthplace of Sir Donald Bradman. We travelled across to Tumbarumba via Batlow, appreciating the hardships of early pioneers and the drive of visionary Herbert Velvin Smith (OBE) who made Batlow Famous for Apples! We drove along the scenic Snowy Mountains Highway to the Kosciuszko National Park, home to the Yarrangobilly Caves Reserve and enjoyed a fascinating tour of Jillabenan Cave, packed with incredibly delicate and striking formations. We visited Talbingo to view the Tumut 3 Power Station, Talbingo Dam and the T3 pipeline inlet structure. At the Adelong Falls Gold Mill Ruins, site of the re**er battery 1868-82 which was needed in the gold rush period from 1852, we were assured there was still gold to be found. We didn’t have time to go gold panning! The Blowering Dam Reservoir was an impressive sight, though what we all enjoyed was our visit to the Broom Factory in Tumut, the last original Millet Broom Factory in Australia. We saw how straw brooms were made and many of our group purchased brooms of one type or other. Before leaving Tumut we toured the Tumut River Brewery and sampled a few brews and enjoyed a hearty lunch. What a memorable fun and informative Tour. Good times with friends, meeting people of the high country, enjoying the autumnal scenery and relishing the wonderful local food and cuisine of the area.

NZ South Island Wanderer
Great Feedback
We would all like to thank whoever originally put this tour together – it was a remarkable holiday and we were very fortunate with good, sunny weather most days. The walks were fabulous, accommodation, meals, coach drivers excellent and all arrangements were spot on. Some venues had specially reserved tables for our group where there was lots of people staying.

Asking around the group for some of their favourite places on the tour Doubtful Sound was on top of everyone’s list. What a day that was. When we arrived it was very misty going out on the boat and on the return remarkably clear with many waterfalls.

Mount Cook another favourite and we had clear blue skies for our walk on the Ho**er Valley Track to see the mountain reflected in the lake.

I could not recommend this tour highly enough. We all had a sensational time and the last couple of days at Furneaux Lodge was a good wind down before flying home.

Thank you from all of the group for this amazing experience of the South Island.

The weather wasn’t the best to showcase “sparkling” Sydney not that this deterred our group from Canberra who had a fabulous time enjoying The Phantom of the Opera and touring some of Sydney's highlights.
