A day at Avondale

On the 20th of July we drove down to Avondale. First we met up with Dr Allan Lindsay who showed us around there and could tell us a lot about the history and many interesting stories!

this is one of the first buildings of the college

the famous swinging bridge
inside the Ellen White Research centre
Dr Allan Lindsay shows us a copy of the book Ellen White received when she left Australia. Many friends draw and wrote in that book which must have been really special for her!
