Holden Cars

Holden Cars were made in Australia for years. The first was produced in 1948, the last in 2017.

The Holden museum in Echuca has many Holden cars which are owned by various Holden enthusiasts, these owners have done their cars up immaculately and display them in the museum for a time.  I enjoyed viewing them all, and was permitted to take photos.
The history and information of the Holden can be found [ here ]
 
I took photos of all the cars there but showing a few in this post and not in order.

A shop, house or two.

The shopping area

Covid-19 has developed once again in the State of Victoria and the border between Echuca and Moama NSW is closed causing a bit of a stir.  Many people who live in Moama work in Echuca and have to get a permit to go to work - well best to be safe than ill or dead.

Below are some photos of the shopping area in Echuca, what I really like about this area is not much has changed, the shops are quaint.






We walked through these shops and found them fascinating, the fish shop had great fish and chips, we thoroughly enjoyed them.

Down by the River

Down by the River Murray or Murray River in Echuca, Victoria there is an Esplanade where you can walk and catch the Riverboat and along this Esplanade I took some things of interest.
Firstly is a place to stay, one of many.






Things of old gone by era.




Don't know what these bluish things are long the fence and partly in the tree - just decoration I suppose.








A alley way back to the main road and the back of another accommodation place.

Houseboats

River Murray at Echuca, Victoria and a few house boats, some worst for wear. 
We found a place which was a small area to stand and take these photos.  Once again it was a Sunday so no one around late in the afternoon.











 There is a train up there somewhere, we couldn't get to see it because the gate was locked.


Have no idea what these tall 'things' are - to me just decoration.
