Mildura Buronga Riverside Park NSW

Come to this Discovery Parks caravan park - crossing the river from Victoria to NSW. Easy book in process when you're not in a hurry - which we haven't been on this whole trip! Nice young woman (reception staff) tells us for our 1 night stay she'll put us in her favourite spot of this park (haha how to make us feel good) on Site 99. We go and find our site - and agree it's in a lovely spot. Settle ourselves, awning and air-conditioner happening, don't need our mat - there is a cement pad. Roger gets into his bathers and tries out the closest pool (there's 2 in this park) - very happy. I'm relaxing outside in the shade, enjoying the breeze and the view. A little later I go and have a dunk in the pool too - delightful! Get chatting with a couple (only others at the pool) and discover just as we're heading back to our own camps - that they know Roger (back at the caravan) as Ray is a retired Portland police officer. Their names Ray and Nolene Hastings - turns out their son went to Monivae in the same year's as Tegan. On my return to our camp I head off and have a shower to be organised to go out later. Roger cooks up some pork steaks on the park BBQ to have with a supermarket salad - we eat this early so we have eaten before we go. We drive out at 6pm to go on our tour, return around 9pm. Now time for Roger to go for his shower, then we have a cuppa, now relaxing before bedtime.
27/03/25 Thursday. Roger and I sleep in until almost 8am. Get up and have a leisurely breakfast before packing and sorting to leave. We get underway around 9.30am. I'm keen to get to Mildura Kmart before we leave town to get the card game Five Crowns $19. Done.Read more
