    Our road trip along Australia’s greatest waterway, the Murray River continues 😊

    Leaving Swan Reach we headed towards Blanchetown, and oops we did it again 😜
    Murraylands Road turned unmade in front of us, again, so on with the carafan

    We have previously taken the ferry at Morgan and passed through Cadell, so this time we crossed the bridge at Blanchetown and made our way directly to Waikerie.
    We’ve stayed here before and the camping spot is so good we couldn’t resist returning on this Murray River adventure 🏕️

    👍🏻 Waikerie laundrette, clean and huge machines 🧺
    👍🏻 Our faith in Tourist Information has been restored by the lovely lady at Waikerie 🙏🏻
