Mike and Jan arrived in Port Campbell last night so today we’re going to Port Fairy. Our first stop was Boggy Creek Pub but we were too early and found it shut.

Then past Warrnambool where we called into the Cheese Museum. My attention was drawn to the Dave Lee Vintage Engine Collection with a unique collection of petrol and oil powered internal combustion engines.

Our final stop before Port Fairy was Portland to check out the harbour. It was pissing down so we were surprised to come across the weigh-in for the annual Portland fishing competition. You can see the winning fish still on display. Nice tuna.

We finally arrived in Port Fairy and spent some time exploring this township. It is central to region with an Irish flavour with surrounding townships called Dublin, Cork and the like. Historically Port Fairy was called Belfast but its name was changed at some time due to the violence in Belfast (Ireland) at the time.
