On sat(3rd) it reached a high of 1 degree, but that didn't deter us going for a trip to the Big Pit - A coal mine & museum - not much different to similar museums in Australia (e.g. Sovereign Hill, Walhalla, LaTrobe Valley). In fact the atmosphere here , grey and cloudy, reminds me of the LaTrobe Valley. Any white you see in the pics is ice - these were taken at midday!!

A few of the locals as well!
