The Millicent National Trust Museum is one of the most outstanding regional historical museums I have visited. Accessed through the Information centre, the museum utilizes multiple historical buildings and links them together in focusing on local life. Information pamphlet indicates a walking path that takes in all exhibits in sequence. Highlights for me were the Shipwreck Room, The Helen Hughes Collection of fashion and the biggest display of varying horse carriages that I have ever seen – from buggies, street cabs to hearses. I still have a question – “Who was Helen Hughes?” The one thing that you need if visiting is time! There is so much to see that it is a dis-service to rush it – allow at least 2 hours – longer if you are able to. Compliments to the staff who maintain the museum and to the Information Centre staff for their friendly assistance. Return? Most definitely on the bucket list when back in Millicent.

After a couple of hours on the road, pulling into Lake McIntyre was just what we wanted. A chance to get out of the car, stretch the legs, have a snack in a quiet beautiful wetlands area. About 5km west of Millicent just off the Rendelsham Road, there is a lot of car parking all within easy access to the facilities including toilets, BBQ area and a walking track. An interpretive centre focuses on the local fauna and flora and for the bird lovers there is a bird hide. We enjoyed the time exploring the area at late morning which unfortunately meant not many birds around. Of note was the information regarding the use of dead trees and how important they are for habitats for our native animals and birds – something I had never really thought about. Compliments to the volunteers who maintain the beauty of the lake area. Return? Definitely to further explore the area at leisure!
