Belgrave Survival Day 26 January 2013


The sixth annual Belgrave Survival Day was held among the trees in Belgrave's Borthwick Park in the Dandenongs.

I very much enjoyed the experience of attending the previous year's festival and decided not to miss it in 2013.

The atmosphere was again warm and inviting.

We were formally welcomed with a traditional Smoking Ceremony.
