Much cooler today with a maximum of 35, and cooler again tomorrow, unfortunately accompanied by southerly winds which try and blow me backwards! Nice to get some mobile coverage in the middle of nowhere.
Should be finished in 10 or 11 days if I can keep up the 40km days.
Despite all my fears of snake bites, sprained ankles, dysentery and other disasters, touch wood there have been no issues whatsoever so far. Feeling very lucky!

Mixed blessings in that cool change, huh? We're enjoying the cool change in Adelaide too, after the recent hot weather. I hope all continues to go well for the remainder of the paddle, and that you come across more kind and entertaining country folk! [Eileen]
TravelerI can’t remember if you finish at Wentworth or go on to Renmark presumably duplicating some of the first trip. Good to have the end in sight- not quite so many mozzies and flies at home!
TravelerFinishing at Wentworth in about a week. Not sure what I was thinking of with another week to Renmark, particularly as Wentworth to Renmark is probably the most remote stretch of the entire Murray!
