LOCATION:Meet at McDonald’s Pt Cook at 8:45am
DESCRIPTION:FYANSFORD PAPERMILL, BARRABOOL MAZE & GARDENSSunday 3rd May Me
 et at McDonald\'s Pt Cook at 8:45am - don\'t forget to start with a full t
 ank in the Moke and maybe a coffee (hot choc) for the journey– and drive
  to Geelong.I will then meet everybody at McDonald\'s Lovely Banks at 9:45
 am(This is on the Geelong ring road heading to Colac, just after the Bachu
 s Marsh overpass – do not take the highway into Geelong)Fyansford Paper 
 Mill-meeting on site at 10:15 for the tour starting at 10:30am …..Origin
 ally built circa 1870, the Fyansford Paper Mill stands as one of Victoria\
 's earliest industrial sites - once the third-oldest paper mill in the sta
 te.In operation until 1923, the site later played a pivotal role in World 
 War II as a manufacturing base for sea mines, before transitioning to quar
 ry-related storage and eventually falling into disuse by the mid-20th cent
 ury.The tour is run by volunteers from Highton Rotary with the $15 entranc
 e fee going to their work.After walking around the property and taking in 
 the views of the Barwon River and Buckley\'s falls we will head to the Bar
 rabool Maze & Gardens which is approx 8 Kilometres away.The Barrabool Maze
  & Gadens is set on 28 acres and has a hedge maze, gardens, Duck Duck Goos
 e Café and the beginnings of the owner\'s own car collection.The owner Wa
 yne (who I consider a little eccentric) has offered us a special deal cons
 isting of entry to Maze and Gardens after enjoying a meal of Lasagne, sala
 d and chips with French stick bread – all for $30. A very short drive ha
 s you back on the Geelong ring road heading back to Melbourne(Suggest we a
 lso go through the little township of Ceres which then gives you the magni
 ficent views over Geelong and Corio Bay – an extra 5 km)Note: I must hav
 e numbers by 16th of APRIL to lock in the Papermill tour as it is Australi
 an Heritage week and Rotary can only take limited people on the tour.You w
 ill have already received this info via email-but if you still want to go 
 when you read this in Tracks-give me a call and we\'ll have a chat!Graeme
