Burra: I get the keys to the town!

[@ramio1983]

I did this with my parents, LOVED the idea of the key. My favourite was the underground brewery tunnels and the dig out houses!

[@stevenjohannesen88]

Excellent commentary,and vlog, and love the background music,beautiful stone work on every building, cheers from Downunder 🦘🦘🦘❤️🇦🇺

[@LetsGo012]

Thanks so much. It’s an interesting town

[@michaelayliffe7238]

Burra is South Australia's hidden gem.

[@monikagreich]

Terry, your channel is fabulous! You have such a friendly way of imparting your travel experiences. I'm working my way through all your videos. Just love seeing the different locations around Australia, and hearing about the history of each one. Video and music editing is perfect too. Best of luck with your channel. Look forward to the next installment! Cheers

[@LetsGo012]

Aww thanks so much. I’m glad you enjoy watching as much as I enjoy making these videos 😀

[@la7418]

Thanks for the tour Terry - awesome ! We feel like visiting some of these places you’re showing us now. Great channel.

[@davidnelson7786]

Thank you, Terry, for a very interesting and informative video. Love your sense of humour. Cheers.

[@jeetts59]

That was brilliant Terry, I've been to Burra many times and had no idea about that self guided tour,

[@LetsGo012]

It’s a great idea and fun to do at your own pace.

[@bronnylowke409]

Well done to the people who've made this available to locals & tourists alike. I can only imagine the volunteering hours put into the project for other people's experiences & enjoyment.

[@scottbennier1335]

I lived in Burra in 1978…… it still had 5 pubs, the mine was still open as was the railway. I loved my time in Burra ✅

[@michaelbarden4162]

Thanks for a wonderfully presented video Terry. My wife and I visited Burra 2019, took the key tour and your video took us right back there. Love this town. We camped with our caravan up at the old showgrounds on the edge of town. your delivery very relaxed, enjoyable and easy to watch. Cheers.

[@philipboyce5774]

What a fascinating video from beginning to end. There is a lot of preserved history in the town of Burra. Thanks for taking the time to make and share this masterpiece.

16:30 the unicorn brewery cellar was actually a filming location for Wolf creek 2 featuring John jarrett. I included a link to John coming back after the cellar flooded a while ago. m.kzbin.info/www/bejne/nmHTnXycfbenlcU&pp=ygUSSm9obiBqYXJyZXR0IGJ1cnJh

Thanks for the information. That’s awesome!

[@4grrrl]

I was born in Burra

[@freethinker4991]

Abby thanks for the input I learnt a little more about Australia as I was not aware that SA was almost given to the French.

[@PhillipMcCallum]

Found out about Burra s key after I left on a photographer youtube, it's on my list for my next trip to whyalla, Great video

[@LetsGo012]

Definitely worth doing.

[@anavelaeshomestead]

Well done informative video, I moved close by 2 years ago. Great town, there's so much history.

[@jonnydogg]

Yay Mog’s Cafe!

[@skippymaster57]

Imagine we SA Aussies could be speaking French and have to use a Visa to enter Vic, NSW and WA?

[@LetsGo012]

It nearly happened. We’d be eating croissants for breakfast

[@ozventure3822]

Great video. 2 of my grt grt grandfathers arrived there 1857. One from Wales, the other from South America. He was Jose Pizarro, a muleteers for the mines there. Bringing mules over and trekking to the port with copper and back. When the copper ran out he, his wife and her family travelled slowly to Ballarat where they grew old and passed away there. There are many Pizarros still in SA and VIC. My father and brother were born with brown skin, black hair and brown eyes. Carrying Jose's genes on.

[@LetsGo012]

Wow that’s great. I love hearing people’s stories 😀

[@aileenbell2248]

Great video on Burra .. beautiful little town 🥰👋

[@glenndarragh4417]

Another really well shot, interesting video. So glad I found your channel, have subscribed 👍

Thanks so much & welcome aboard 😀

[@incredingo]

the brewery, down in the cellars was where scenes from wolf creek were filmed.

[@icascone]

What a great town!

[@happyplace444]

ps this is an interesting video and I like that you told us the history etc.

[@lindageorge8209]

Thanks for the video it was really interesting. We visited Burra on our way west in 2020, and intended to go as far as Perth and then come back. Burra was one of the places we wanted to visit on the way back to spend more time in. Sadly we were only there overnight, and we couldn't get back over the border so we had to go right around Australia running from covid! My father lived at Moonta Bay, and I believe the Moonta Mines are connected to the copper at Burra, so I've seen a bit of mining history over at Moonta. Hopefully we'll get back one day!

[@LetsGo012]

Moonta video coming soon 😀

[@incredingo]

thanks for this video. i did the key thing about 10 years ago so this brings back some wonderful memories. it is an amazing place and everyone should go see it.

[@RaveDave871]

Wanted to see Australia but put right off since Wolf Creek movie, big diff between rough diamond bloke and rough 💩 huh

[@chloeew4627]

Lots of shearing around Burra ,Peterbough and Yunta late 70s until mid 90s . Great times .😊

[@sylvain5146]

Love your content Terry, a film producer in the making

[@lindee234]

Love what you’re doing. Had no idea of many of these towns.

[@garychopping2184]

Burra is a great little town , i retired a year ago from Adelaide people friendly cafes are great , thing i like most going up to the mine site when theres no moon you can see the milky way and the millions of stars its really is a awesome sight.

[@ChowdiusPupperMemusII]

I could hear the pigeons when I went to the engine house as well

[@Natashaleah9]

Absolutely enjoyed this, thank you for an awesome video and commentary. It looked like such fun exploring the history and beautiful places throughout the town, it felt like going back in time. I LOVE your videos, thank you again!

[@LetsGo012]

Thanks so much 😀

[@Kimbo1972]

My original settler ancestors are buried in the Burra Cemetary - Hannretta Mugge and Juilius Mugge ding in 1896 and 1897 - not sure on the spelling of the 1st names sorry :)

[@happyplace444]

I by chance found your you tube channel whilst googling great ocean road, which I watched on my TV and enjoyed. When I searched Let’s Go to watch some more, you did not come up. So, I got onto KZbin on my iPad, searched for Let’’s Go great ocean road and up came your other VTs, which is strange. So looks like I’ve got to watch them on the iPad rather than TV.

[@LetsGo012]

Hi. Thanks for watching. On your smart TV while in KZbin search LetsGo012 and you should find my channel.

[@shaungoldsworthy8942]

I lived here over half a century ago, we had a goat that would follow us to the shop and wait like a dog

[@LetsGo012]

That’s a great story. Thanks for sharing 😀

Come to Leonora in Western Australia 🇦🇺 .. you will love it .. the old town of Gwalia .where Roland Rocchiccioli .i say rocincheli grew up .. I’ve read his book . “ and be home before dark “ .

[@Prizefighta]

The brevet sergeant, John, that is/was there… genuinely the best Cop in the state. And I can’t stand cops. Be worth settling down there just to know you’re in a safe and supported community.

[@jannalenefensom4130]

Same trip as Terowie and Peterbourgh. Stopped here overnight and that was when we found out about the railway line. The place we stayed at was trying to resurrect it because of the paltry price it was sold for. We wandered around without the key but was still interesting. At the time w went through these areas emus were coming into town looking for food and water this was before 2019, so not sure when this vid was done but can tell you it was very interesting at this time

[@HPlessyFOX_198]

this is so cool! i live a bit awayfrom burra and have been there with my parents when i was younger and thought id forgotten my memeories of going around to the historic places. thanks for making me remember these meories! the dougouts were my favourite and still are. thanks for this vid!

[@LetsGo012]

I hope you get a chance to go again one day

[@LetsGo012]

That’s awesome 😀

[@suzymcgregor3122]

That was a very interesting insight to the history of Burra. Did you know that the Midnight Oil house is where Ian Rosewall was born, Ken Rosewalls cousin. There used to be to be a tennis court in front of the home and the family would sit on the veranda and watch Ken and Ian play tennis.

[@LetsGo012]

Wow. I didn’t know that. Thanks for sharing 😀

[@jannalenefensom4130]

Burra is lovely though

[@karengayehammat4199]

🌞I had no idea Midnight Oil took that much of an interest in SA I know somebody who would loose her marbles over that

[@LetsGo012]

If you ask anyone in town where’s the Midnight Oil house they all know where to direct you 😂
