We found ourselves at the location of another favourite Aussie movie. ‘The Castle’ tells the story of the Kerrigan family and their fight to save their home. It’s at the end of a runway and the government wants the land to expand the airport.
The Kerrigans have a holiday home at Bonnie Doon where they ‘feel the serenity’ despite all the power lines. The movie put the town of Bonnie Doon on the map. If you haven’t seen it, it’s highly recommended and you’ll soon be using such iconic quotes as “tell him he’s dreamin’”, “this is going straight to the pool room” or maybe singing “We’re goin’ to Bonnie Doon, we’re goin’ to Bonnie Doon”.
