A-Z Challenge: X for Xtras

 I am back again for the Blogging from A to Z April Challenge so have made the commitment to blog every day in April except the Sundays. Some bloggers choose a Theme, and others do random posts. For me, a theme works better, so the theme  I’ve chosen for 2016 is Bendigo, a large provincial city in central Victoria, Australia.  I live just outside Bendigo and have been in this area for only 9 years, so feel I still have ‘visitors eyes’.

X is for Xtras or more correctly eXtras. Whaat??? I hear you say. Well I’m sorry to say it, but eXtras is the best I can come up with. I have been dreading the letter X and searching frantically for an attraction starting with X in Bendigo, without luck.

So I have decided to go with eXtras. By the end of April I will have reported on 26 things around Bendigo that are worthwhile coming to this city to see. Of course there are many, many more events and things to see here. I have decided that they will be my eXtras.

In particular my eXtras are the many festivals that occur annually. E was for the Easter Fair, so enough said about that. There are many other festivals both small and large:

  •  Summer in the Parks
  •  Scots Day out
  •  Chinese New Year
  •  Sanguine Estate Music Festival
  •  Bendigo Writers Festival
  •  Groovin The Moo Music Festival
  •  Blues and Roots Festival
  •  Great Stupa Festival of Light
  •  Australian Sheep and Wool Show
  •  Vegecareian Festival

The above festivals are just a few. There also the many athletics festivals, sports carnivals and fun runs held regularly during the year. Bendigo is also home to a wide variety of markets, with at least one market open every weekend.

Come to Bendigo. And have fun. There is so much to see.
