The spectacular Heading Cliffs near Renmark

Not sure what a "field and game association" does, but this is their clubrooms.

The Japanese were interned here somewhere during WW2. I think local Germans and Italians were interned in the

PS Industry, one of a few riverboats along the wharf.

A brutal day today with 5 1/2 hours non stop paddling just to get the 33kms into Renmark. 25km/h head winds most of the way, a steep chop and constant drizzle all morning. Packing up the sodden camp in the cold this morning after constant overnight rain was pretty miserable too. Apart from that, things are going OK and I'm looking forward to a days break.
Went into Renmark this afternoon for a long awaited cold beer and pub meal. Very nice.
The caravan park here is enormous with an outdoor cinema, resort pool, gym, yoga room on 20 something acres along the river!
