One last post for the 2016 trip for our beautiful Flora and Fauna

Couldn't go without sharing he natural beauty of our Country.








 This as a chase and so cute.

















Thank you for viewing.  Barb

A LOOK AROUND THEN HOMEWARD BOUND

Bendigo didn't dissappoint when I finally got there for a short look around with a promise to return.
The Blues festival didn't happen for me this year, however it will be on the agenda for 2017. 
As expected he buildings of Bendigo were just as beautiful as the gardens and the view from the tower was magnificent.
















I walked up here!!!!!  nearly killed me it did. lol

Bendigo or Broken Hill

Well time came to leave Echuca but I wasn't quite finished with Victoria so when I reached the signposts Bendigo won the toss.
Excel l ent decision because when I drove through town I felt like I  could spend a few weeks here and not get bored.

Time on the Murray

Day one October 26th, my boy's birthday.
Seems like a good day to go paddlesteaming.










 Beautiful day to be cruising  on the Murray which forms the border between NSW and VIC.  We saw where the caravan park in Moama NSW was flooded and the 
resident didn't have enough warning to get out. That was really sad but I guess if you live right on the river bank it is to be expected.
Day 2. Back to the port to have look around for a while then back home for a rest. Not too much happening just site seeing.












Day 3, retail therapy day. Found the perfect hat for the trip and a decent  diary, now i can see where I waste my $$$.
Filled up with petrol and when I started the car it sounded like a chaff cutter. RACV to the rescue again AND yet another sloppy mistake by EngineRebuilders Beenleigh that could have been very costly and required a new motor. Wonder what will be next!
Day 4 and a visit to Super Cheap.  Got a new tarp to wrap the roof rack properly so it is easy for me to access. Cargo net folded in half and it actually fits much better and it is all set to go.  
Checked o the wineries guide and that could take up a few (or more) hours tomorrow.
More from Echuca later.
Day 5 rest day after talking myself out of some Collingwood gear at the market.
VERY WINDY Sunday.
