Christmas Eve

The campsite at Swan Hill was immaculately kept and the owners were very friendly. We had a easy dinner of cheese and crackers and another swim before bed. It was a warm night but we were able to get a good breeze through the camper which was a relief as temperatures are set to rise this week.

Christmas Eve - after a walk around Swan Hill we hit the road to Mildura 222km away. There was pretty much nowhere to stop along the way, we tried to get a sandwich at Robinvale but there was nothing open. We had booked a campsite in one of the many parks on the river. We had a fabulous view. The set-up was a little stressful as we had only put the awning up once, it didn't take too long and not to many swear words.

We had scoped out our Christmas Day treats at our local Aldi but discovered there is not Aldi in Mildura yet! Luckily we could make do at Coles and Woolies. Back to our camping site for a simple BBQ chicken and salad dinner and a very nice Rose wine.Read more
