    One of several camping spots along this part of the river.More Spoonbills. Very timid, they panic and fly away as soon as they sense human presenceGogelderie weir. 2 of the 6 gates openBrilliant campsites on every bend! Much better than the Murray which often had steep banks or cliffsA canal diverting water to Coleambally south of the river

    Hi All,

    Had to negotiate Gogelderie weir today. Another epic performance which took over 2 hours. No more weirs until Hay thank goodness.
    Just finished listening to David Nicholls "Sweet Sorrow" audiobook. Highly recommended.
    Onwards to Darlington Point tomorrow and the promise of a pub meal.
    :-)
