Justa short drive from Junee . We did our Saturday Park run around lake Albert.

City walk down church street through Victory gardens then up the main drag. Had a look through the city gallery they had the Bald archives on display quite hilarious.

Also time for the Wild Hogs off on our bike ride along the Murrumbidgee river.Okumaya devam et

Heading west with silos and a museum
24 Nisan 2023, Avustralya ⋅ ☀️ 24 °C
It was an early start this morning. Over the last few days Carolina has had a blocked ear that has been sore and bothering her, so we planned a doctors appointment for her in Wagga. In addition the Redarc Tow Pro in the car which operates the electronic caravan braking system has been playing up, so we planned a stop at the RedArc service centre in Temora. Therefore an early start was the order of the day to maximise time flexibility and we were on the road at 7:30am.
Along the way we came across our first set of painted silos at Harden. Carolina is fascinated by painted silos and water tanks and has the coffee table books, the calendar, and all the details. So seeing these while we travel is a must. The Hayden solos were a bit unusual because viewing them was not easy. Instead of viewing points that are provided for other painted silos, these were adjacent to private properties surrounded by high trees and big signs warning people not to trespass. Not so tourist-friendly!! So taking photos meant poking around the trees looking for suitable gaps.
Then on to Temora, a nice little country aviation town which used to be a big RAAF pilot training centre during WW2 between 1941-46 and whose airport is now active in gliding activities. There is also a very good RAAF aircraft museum with an excellent collection of ex-RAAF aircraft, all of which are still in flying condition. The Canberra bomber, Meteor, Sabre, Hudson, Spitfire, and Tiger Moth are some of the many older aircraft on display. Peter spent about an hour wandering around these aircraft reminiscing about the past flying history.
In the meantime our Tow Pro main control box had been found to be faulty and RedArc replaced it under warranty no questions asked. A big thumbs-up for the RedArc after sales service!!
Then it was on to Wagga for Carolina’s ear appointment which was fixed by the kind doctors.
Today was also our first caravan park overnight for the last 10 days at the BIG4 in Wagga and it was a nice one with lots of room, trees, and a nice atmosphere. Time to top up the water tanks, do some washing, and have long soothing showers!! A restful night awaits with some pupusas for dinner.Okumaya devam et

Wagga Wagga beach caravan park was a nice little surprise for our first overnighter. We enjoyed a dip in the river and a walk along the banks. Lucky for us, the Easter Bunny even found us here!

Quite a few fishing boats on the river today, being a Saturday. Thankfully I have yet to see a ski boat!
The current is definitely slowing, from around 6km/h to around 2 or 3km/h, I assume that's due to the first weir coming up.
All going well, plenty of good camping spots, and good weather on the horizon.

Very cold last night, a minimum of 7 degrees according to BOM. Quite cosy in my new sleeping bag thankfully, as it was the cold nights that was probably the worst of the Murray trip.
Made it to Currawarna State Forest reserve after a 45km paddle today. Have to keep reminding myself that it’s the journey not the destination, so occasionally I stop paddling, stretch back in the kayak and drift for a while listening to the sounds of the river. Very pleasant. Saw 2 tinnies today, and had a brief chat with the fishermen. Nice to have some human contact!

Had a look around Wagga this morning and indulged myself with a Big Breakfast. I had intended to stay there tonight also, but thought I may as well push on. It is a large town of about 70,000 people but to me it lacks the charm of most of the towns along the Murray. Although it is on the Murrumbidgee, there are no sweeping lawns along the riverfront, picnic areas, riverfront cafes and the like that you see on the big towns on the Murray. The Murrumbidgee just quietly winds it way behind the town, almost unnoticed. Quite strange.

Nice spot for camping. [Michele]

Gezgin Nice one👍 lots of camping by the looks of it. I was wondering what your food menu looks like for each day. More canned tuna and noodles?
10.03.2023YanıtlaÇevirmek
Gezgin Hi Scott. A pretty uninteresting diet. Muesli, skim milk and a coffee stick for breakfast, 5 vitaweet, a small tin of tuna and a muesli bar for lunch, 2 minute noodles and a small tin of tuna for dinner. A few lolly snakes along the way to keep the glucose levels up, but probably overall in calorie deficit ( counteracted by the massive mixed grill I have just demolished at the Narrandera RSL Club!)

Finally arrived in Wagga Wagga after a bit of a slog. I was expecting to see the boat ramp of the caravan park, but in fact it didn’t have one so I ended up paddling about 1km past it and then had to paddle back upstream against the current. Seriously hard work! Not happy!
Wagga apparently is the Indigenous word for "crow" and in their language (as in various others) the plural is formed by repeating the word, so Wagga Wagga means "land of many crows". I thought that was rather interesting.
Staying in the caravan park tonight which is rather strangely situated right next to the Treatment Works!

Again, staying near the Murrumbidgee River, this time in Wagga Wagga. Not one of my most favourite cities but has some appeal with its beach on the banks of the river and some beautiful churches and cathedrals. Had our first experience with medical issues on the road here and it opened our eyes to the disadvantages of living in a caravan with dogs but it all turned out well and maybe made us a bit more aware of our limits. Visited the Botanic Gardens with their little zoo and aviary. The aviary was lovely and well done with all the bottlebrush and other native treesOkumaya devam et

Borambola - a place of stories.
1 Ekim 2022, Avustralya ⋅ 🌧 14 °C
Each wine beer and cider in the Borambola range has a story. Featuring future Kings of England - both George and Charles - in different eras of course. To the winner of the 1947 Melbourne Cup - the horse not the jockey. Also Bushrangers and assorted pets. Now Alan, Regina and Ian have gazed out on the beautiful hills and valleys from the spectacular homestead. Since the 90’s the view has featured grape vines. Back in ‘80’s of the 1800’s the keenest eye would not have seen the most distant eastern boundary which was up near Tumut covering 1.3mill hectares.
Borambola is now a wine producer, so if you see the label in your local bottlo or restaurant. Do yourself a favour.Okumaya devam et
