Bargara Beach, Queensland
Len and isabel robinson
Our 50th wedding anniversary was spent at Bargara Beach
QLD, the coastal beachside near Bundaberg. It was a ‘trip down memory lane’ of our wedding day on 23 April 1966. We had first met one night at Bargara Beach when my now husband was 15 and I was 14. I had declared that night that I would one day marry this handsome blonde lad.
We re-lived our anniversary day with photo shoots at the places of memory 50 years previous. We took photos and visited the family homes where my husband and I lived before we married, where we had the wedding reception and the gardens where we had after wedding photos taken.
The church where we were married opened the doors so that we could have a time of reflection of our day 50 years ago. We had several couples who were present in 1966 at the church and the Pastor and his wife who married us and our then bridesmaid attend our special anniversary day.
About 50 family and friends celebrated with us for this event. Don Pancho at Bargara Beach was our holiday destination for 2 weeks. Such great memories were made with family and friends to celebrate this very happy occasion.
It will always be a very special and romantic memory for us.
Bright, Victoria

When most people hear of Bright, Victoria, Australia they first think of skiing, then perhaps golf. When we enjoyed our August RCI exchange in Bright we were able to do both. But neither compared with the adrenaline rush which we experienced when we took flight in two micro-lite small planes at the nearby airfield.
After motoring aloof to an altitude above Mt. Buffalo, the pilots cut the engines as we then glided on the thermals back down to terra firma. So proficient was my pilot that the engine was NEVER turned on again, as he managed to glide us to the runway and even into the hanger before halting expertly in the hanger. As the two aircraft were airborne, we could watch each other and exchange the “thumbs up” as we glided smoothly and quietly above the earth, and we give a five star thumbs up to this experience.
