This morning after a leisurely breakfast we make our way into Yarrawonga to board the MV Paradise Queen for a two hour barbeque luncheon cruise on Lake Mulwala. Constructed in 1986, the Paradise Queen was transported from Eildon to Yarrawonga in two pieces before being put together and
beginning service on Lake Mulwala. After our cruise we return to Wangaratta to visit the Historical Society Museum (subject to being open), located in the Old Fire Station building. It houses over 2,000 objects
and 10,000 glass plate negatives from the 1840’s to the 1950’s. The collection showcases the lives of the districts’ peoples in peace and war, on the farms and towns. The Aboriginal artifacts collection is on display in a uniquely constructed cabin house. Then it’s back to our accommodation for a rest before dinner.
