Murray Bridge

Another day in Murray Bridge as we slowed down a little after travelling so far. The packing/travelling/unpacking on most days gets a little tiring for both of us. I took the car to a local car wash and promptly managed to snap the antenna of the UHF radio. My own stupid fault. I've managed to repair it enough for it to still work, so all is not lost. It has been invaluable on the highways through the centre of the country.
We had seen a promising walk on a levee bank along the banks of the river the day before so we went for a brisk stroll in the afternoon. The walk took us under the original "Murray Bridge" which was the first bridge built that spanned the Murray River. Started in 1873 and completed in 1879 it is still in use today. I'm not sure what part the dog in the picture played in the construction of the bridge.Read more
