John Foord was an early pioneer to the region. He established a business using punts to get people and goods across the Murray River. He then built the bridge and charged a toll for those using it.

We arrived in time for lunch and were setup quite quickly. Happy hour with a cour of other Czytaj więcej

Much better today. A 43km paddle which I am happy about.

Podróżnik Altication with wasp sounds quite comical....not really though if you nearly knocked yourself out. Wildlife sounds a different sort of background noise to urban life sounds. All part of the adjusting. Enjoy some good nosh in Corowa. Can you add Johanna to the email list! xxx
43km sounds really good - more thank you were thinking but perhaps making up for previous days. What does the 2116 in the photo mean? I am enjoying the trip vicariously! [Michele]

Pretty traumatic start yesterday. Not expecting the river to be flowing so fast or have so many snags and gravel bars. Much better today. Slower river flow and getting my sea legs. If things keep Czytaj więcej

Fantastic Mark...Great effort ! Here I am hanging out for a decent paddle and your maxing out ! I do hope I can at least share a small part of your journey. Take care and enjoy this wonderful and unique experience. I am really enjoying the opportunity that the technology allows us...quite amazing really ( I know that’s an old farts comment but surely we can celebrate that truth at some point in time prior to the final breath ? ) Phil [Phil Duncan]
Podróżnik Hi Phil. Not sure about maxing out. When you have all day on your hands there's no much else to do but paddle. Yes - I really hope we can spend some time together on the river when I get to SA.
Podróżnik Nice to have a shower I imagine! I am sure there is a very obvious answer but why do you have to portage when there is water right by you?! Those boats! We find at Goolwa that we have to shut doors and windows when the speed boats, or even a boat, are out as they are really noisy.
Podróżnik Hi Michele. They omitted to build a lock into the Yarrawonga weir for some reason, so it requires a portage around the weir. Good to use a few different muscle groups actually.. You can hear the power boats coming from kilometres away, which is good because it allows you to take evasive action, but does nothing for the tranquillity!
