Kyabram 14 Nov 2012

Left for Harrietville in the morning, stopping at Rochester and Kyabram on the way. We have left the drier western areas of Victoria and we are now driving through rich agricultural land, with irrigated fruit trees lining the roads. All the roads are straight and flat around here, so we made good time to Rochester. This is a pretty little town with an attractive main street and beautiful flower beds decorating the roundabouts. As well as all kinds of fruit, it also has a large dairy industry, with a milk factory in the centre of town. We got into Kyabram late in the afternoon. Although bigger than Rochester, it seems a fairly plain town, with none of the charm of Rochester. Camped on the outskirts for the night, next to a fauna reserve.
