Swan Hill to Echuca to Yarrawonga

Last night, by recommendation, we dined at the 'Java Spice' Thai restaurant. The ambience, food and wine were excellent. We dined inside but could have been outside in bure type bungalows - it was all very well done and we can also recommend this restaurant.

We set off from Swan Hill towards Kerang - this section of the road had been flooded but we did not have to detour until just out of Kerang - there was much water beside the road (photo).

We continueed on to the Old Port area at Echuca. This is most interesting - we see old paddlesteamers, smithies and woodturning shops and many others places of interest. We made the decision to push on to Yarrawonga for our overnight.

We had lunch at Nathalia in a park beside the river - very pleasant. It was then on to Yarrawonga where there is a huge lake - water skiing - we drove across the bridge to Mulwala, set up in the Big 4, washed our cars and vans (many, many locusts) and explored Yarrawonga. Water was flowing very strongly through the weir (photo). Back home for happy hour - another great day!!
