    407 Km Renmark SA to Dimboola VIC

    Low of 23 degrees at 7am and top of 35, sunny and cloudy ⛅️with wind gusts up to 50km/hr 💨

    Our road trip along Australia’s greatest waterway, the Murray River, has come to an end and we’ve loved every minute of the adventure 💙

    With another hot day expected in the Riverland we’ve packed up and on the road early, today’s journey taking us south avoiding the worst of the heat 🙏🏻

    Lunch stop at Bordertown with a walk around the lake to stretch the legs

    Crossing over the border into Vic, and losing 30 mins by doing so, we made an unexpected stop at Kaniva for the silo art, and sheep 🐑 , but were so intrigued by the puppet shop that we had to pop in. And WOW, it’s an amazing place 😍
    As a result we have fallen in love with the world of Sam and Julia 🐭 🐭 and the Mouse Mansion, and can’t wait for grandchildren to share it with 😜

    We travelled as far as our numb bums would allow, and our home for the night is one we have stopped at previously on this trip
