All too soon, Monday arrived and it was time to head home. We decided to go back a different route and continue being tourists. We travelled the same road to Blanchetown and then went South along the river.........
We crossed the river at Walker's Flat on the ferry............ and in the photo below, you can see near the top of the pole the sign that gives you the 1956 flood level!!!
I took this photo from the ferry of the cliffs, which I hope to see from a boat one day!?
We stopped at Mannum and made lunch in the van, and watched the action of people getting on and off the Murray Princess.............
............and the Proud Mary.
From Mannum, we drove to Murray Bridge and had a catch up with Mum..........
.............before arrived back at Bordertown by 5.30pm. Time to unpack the van, put the washing on and get our head's back to reality.... well, until the next trip that is!!
Blessings, From Jude

Great trip Jude, amazing scenery.
I love seeing how The Murray changes throughout its journey from source to sea. I remember my Mum sending all the last of the baby clothes from our babyhood's to those poor victims of the devastating floods. No TV in those days, but I can still remember photos in the newspaper & they were terrible. Thanks for sharing, take care & hugs.
A nice little trip and home again to start the next one…
Another very scenic day. I do hope you get to travel on one if those riverboats in the future.
Such a fun trip.
