Here, in British Columbia, the yield wasn't so successful and I have just begun to learn of the shameful way we treated Asian immigrants and First Nations people. A very different experience in Ballarat, with the architecture of the time just stunning. Thank you for your thoughtful and beautifully photographed description of Ballarat.Black Jack's Carolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18436115876996209227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1742413208415891459.post-6306098030392719562012-05-08T21:46:25.494+05:452012-05-08T21:46:25.494+05:45Interesting history and terrific shots!
