Friday the 10th of April 2015 Kiara and I took an adventure to a little town called Eldorado....We left at 3:40 am and arrived at our destination at 7 am.....we were greeted with an amazing Sunrise while driving..... Camping life sure was fun, we folded the seats in the back of the Pajero and there was enough room to stretch out for a good nights sleep....on the Friday we had a visitor around camp a very sleepy Koala....beautiful sight.

My baby girl Kiara had an amazing time, we smiled nearly all of the time we were there and had many visitors, Raven, Kookaburra, Magpie, Lorrikeet, Robin, Swallow, Duck, Glossy Black-Cockatoo, Fantail, Skink Lizards, Bats..... We had the best weekend together with a mate who we met up with....chatting about life around camp, sharing stories and food.....Kiara took to camping like a Champion even the Makeshift bush toilet I made with a cover for privacy was given the seal of approval for my little Princess Kiara.

My Banker was ready for action again after Andy guided me to a good spot test panning. No Gold made it past the first riffle, how do I know? Because I cleaned out the bottom half first and the top section second where all the gold had collected....I love that Banker and appreciate Andy's help. We didn't do much panning on the Sunday because Kiara and I wanted to explore and have some fun with Crevicing it was a hot day and we sat around the camp chatting and sharing. Monday morning we loaded up the Car to head back to Frankston 3 1/2 hour trip....said our goodbyes to Andy then off we went.

Stopped off at the Dredge in Eldorado on the way home a massive piece of machinery..... One of the biggest lessons I learned from my time away with my daughter Kiara is trusting what is going on behind the scenes, no doubts.....keeping the Faith and Dreams alive by doing what we love and choose to do. A very enjoyable adventure which Kiara is keen to do again but with an updated portable toilet and possibly a bush shower. The result coming in next picture thanks to Andy also Mushmouse and Fred for the chat.

Until next time Eldorado thank you for the gifts and adventure. May you flood good gold for many more years so everyone can experience something magical.

Well done Arthur. That's a great photo's and good story of your trip. Really good to see young children enjoying it as well. Eldorado is a fantastic place. Hopefully I'll be able to catch up with Andy down there again soon.
Keep on digging. Jeff
