On Sunday morning we experienced the start of winter in North East Victoria, it was overcast and drizzling rain by the time the bus reached the first stop at the Eldorado Gold Dredge, a 2000T vessel stranded a long way from the sea. The mood on the bus was bit grim since most of the crew had missed on their Sunday morning coffee and on top of that, the cruise captain stuffed up Imoogi’s coffee order! A short drive through the metropolis of Eldorado (population 273) found a coffee machine at the general store which is part of the McEvoy Tavern, the smallest pub in Victoria. The pub is rather interesting with lots of little signs all over the walls and a resident Alexandrine parakeet that sits on patrons shoulders in an attempt to steal their coffee. Whilst the coffee experience was not quite what most had hoped for, it did provide enough caffeine to stop most of the twitching.
