Adelaide to Brisbane Day 4

This morning I said to David “you always wanted to go on a houseboat, this has to be just as good”. We were then talking to a Man untieing his houseboat to move moorings and he offered to take us to see the weir at lock 10. We also saw where the two rivers meet and had an amazing ride on his amazing boat. He used to have a boat tour business and was also a councillor on the local council so we were given history of the area as well.

Went for a walk down into the town and noticed the caravan park on the river. I enquired and we could get an unpowered site on the river edge for $20 per night with full use of all the amenities.

Notice the change in the colour of the water, we are on the Darling and through the trees the blue water is the Murray. We thought we would stay a couple of nights that has turned into a week. 

A flick of the lure and David had a bit of fun with an inedible carp.

Uplift done! Collected Emily from school in the Motorhome and headed to Greenock Sports Ground. 

Tim and Kylie came and collected us and we went to Musque food and wine for dinner.

Adelaide to Brisbane Day 2

After a good night sleep at Greenock Sports Ground David went for a walk into the town after Breakfast. Set off for Wentworth catching the ferry across the Murray at Morgan.

David went for a walk down to look at Lock 2

Thankyou to “Cossie from South Aussie” talking about the iconic Overland Corner Hotel. We spotted the sign went for a look and we’re not disappointed with the history or the lunch.

David is always surprised by the contrast of the dry barron land with the mighty Murray River close by.

We had wanted to find this playground at Monash on our way into Adelaide when we had Emily but found it today!

Tonight we are staying in the car park of the sports grounds at Wentworth which invites RV’s to stay and were welcomed by one of the golfers.
