We woke this morning, sun was shining.... THE RIDE WAS ON.
We did the usuals, and decided to stay on the bike path along the Murray (A part of the Chaffey Trail).
What a great decision, a sintered path a metre wide ran from Mildura to Merbein, a distance of about 12km's. It passed by original Murray homesteads, Apex Parks, river locks, row upon row of houseboats, lakes, and stays close to the river and winds it's way through the bush.
The round trip took us 5 hours. The wind on the way out was on the nose so the return trip was much quicker.
We had coffee at the pottery and dined at the Merbein Bakery for lunch.
We're having the car and van weighed tomorrow morning and then we're off to Renmark, SA. about 160km's west. It's still on the Murray and we'll probably spend a few days in the area. Might even bust out the fishing gear.
