    Day 12

    February 20, 2024 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 36 °C

    1254 kms to Wentworth
    Next town: Tilpa

    Made it into Louth for a late lunch at Shindys Inn, a small one room hotel which is the centrepiece of Louth (population 43). It is owned and run by Kathy who has lived in the area all her life and runs the pub by herself. Had some nice fish and chips and Tooheys Old both of which went down well. Was going to stay in Louth tonight but the few potential campsites were strewn with dead carp and broken glass so I have moved down river a bit.
    Another weir tomorrow. Groan...
    Saw my first other boat on the river today. A couple of blokes in a tinny.

    River Murray paddle

    TravelerIt was just a matter of weaving and ducking. Luckily the river flow is slow. That makes it easier.
