The rain had stopped by
the time we left Port Augusta. We didn't see much, that will have to
be another trip. The entire place was crowded with hundreds of
caravans, either travelling west, doing “the big lap”, going to
Uluru or Kings Canyon.

We enjoyed our journey
east, we stopped at Crystal Brook and Spalding before reaching Morgan
for an overnight stop. It's a lovely little park right on the banks
of the Murray River, we'll have a look around in the morning before
we leave.

This morning we walked
along the banks of the Murray at Morgan, we watched the ferry
bringing the cars and caravans across the river. This is a free ferry
that operates 24 hours every day. It didn't stop, backwards and
forwards continually as there was plenty of traffic.
We followed the Tomtom
instructions and took the road towards Renmark and then on to
Mildura. We are in the Golden River Holiday Park
which is full of families
and kids...1st day of the school holidays!
We'll have a look around
in the morning but are only overnighting here, and as we've spent
time in this region before will keep moving. A flat tyre held us up,
after sorting that out we continued on to Kerang and then Bendigo.

exhibition at the the Bendigo Art Gallery was the finale of our
winter journey, we arrived home safely the next day.
