Day 77 Mildura
June 29 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C
Today was more of a relaxing day considering it was our last day of holidays. It also rained a lot of the day which made it harder to go out and do things.
The first thing we did today was drive back into town to check out a few more shops around the area. I got a big winter jacket, Jess got a beanie and a very fluffy coat. Jess and I also bought a giant hippo that we named 'Moto Moto' from the movie 'Madagascar'. 'Moto Moto' is the nickname that we had given our truck for the trip. It seemed appropriate to have a mascot on board!
Our final night we thought that we would go out for dinner to celebrate. Mum managed to find the dodgiest local pub called 'The Black Stump'. The service was pretty bad but the food was OK.Read more

Angela , I and Mawson ,our Mascot , left Drysdale early today on our caravanning holiday. Looking forward to this trip to the West then to the Kimberly , The Northern Territory and South Australia.
Arrived in Mildura at 4.45 pm. Good trip but rough roads north of St Arnaud. A few crops emerging in southern mallee but not much in yet further north. Haven't seen many mobs of sheep ! Off to Port Augusta tomorrow.
A very cold morning after leaving Mildura next morning. We stopped for an early cuppa . Angela , like Mawson our little mascot , thought they were in Antartica as they sat down for a cuppa !!Read more

Arrived in Wentworth and ended up staying 4 nights..this town was like a breath of fresh air after being in the bush.
We had a good look around town. The Murray and Darling Rivers meet here. We visited the Perry Sandhills and the Botanic Garden.

Day 75 Victoria
June 27 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 14 °C
Today we finished up in Silverton and returned back to Victoria.
It was hard to believe that Silverton, which currently has a population of 40 people, was in its peak, a mining town of more than 3,000 people.
In the morning we visited the Daydream Mine. We went on an underground tour and then a surface tour. On the tours we learnt about what life was like for the miners in the 1880s when silver was discovered in Silverton. It was pretty tough for miners, working 12 hours a day underground by candlelight. Their life expectancy was only 40 years!
After the surface tour had ended we enjoyed freshly made scones and milos.
We returned to the caravan park to retrieve the caravan and continued on our way towards Victoria.
After crossing the Murray River into Victoria we booked into the Apex River Beach Holiday Park campground in Mildura for three nights. We're planning to be home next Sunday.Read more

Day 76 Mildura
June 28 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 19 °C
Today we returned back to New South Wales to have a look around Wentworth, then returned back to Victoria to have a look around Mildura.
The first thing we did in Wentworth was visit the Wentworth Gaol. It had lots of cool antiques and it was a very good place to play tiggy.
Next we drove over to a place called Orange World where we got some free delicious juicy mandarins and we even got an orange peeler. Once we finished in Orange world we went shopping for some more supplies.
The next thing we did was return back to Victoria to have a look around Mildura. We checked out some shops and a few book stores.Read more

Got up this morning to a slight frost very chilly, as we have no plan we decided to have a lazy day in Mildura did some shopping, very good shopping lots to look at in town and stocked up on supplies as we are going to head off in to the outback where the shopping is very limited. Lots in the van park, most of them stopping here for a bit and then doing the grey nomad exodus to the top end. Lots of paddle steamers up and down the river, would be a very busy place in the summer months.Read more

In Wentworth war es so, dass ich nie einen festen Job hatte. Ich habe immer nur für 1-2 Tage gearbeitet und habe dabei auf Feigen-/, Weintrauben-/, Zitronen-/ und Wassermelonen Farmen gearbeitet. Die Jobs waren entweder einfach und schlecht bezahlt oder Knochenjobs die gut bezahlt waren.
