Distance 1294 / 2195
Next town Mildura
4 days ahead of schedule
Even more people and boats around today. If this is what it's like on a weekend I can't imagine what Easter will be like. Hopefully I'll be well clear of civilisation by then.
20 or 30 kms upstream from a weir (eg Mildura), the current drops away to nothing and the river level builds up 2 or 3 metres from its original level because it’s dammed up by the weir. This means all the nice sandy beaches are underwater so good camp sites are hard to find. Tonight's definitely not good. Mildura tomorrow. Phew!

MatkaajaYes good timing to get to Mildura before Easter I would think. Lucky (not really luck!) you are 4 days ahead of schedule. Stefanos has a nice casual restaurant you might want to try. You are going so well! Dave Hicks is really enjoying your blog too.

MatkaajaThanks Michele. No luck with Stefanos but still enjoying the culinary delights of a country pub!
