Mildura

The original plan was to visit Mildura as the initial part of our post retirement trip in 2020 across the Nullabor and up the west coast.  We all know what happened to that in mid year.  We tried again in late 2020 but then our address in Melb CBD excluded us from staying in Mildura.  Our third attempt that was to include a shortened itinerary to Wilpena Pound and Adelaide has been further shortened to permit us to carry out our carer duties for Mel who is recovering well from a badly broken ankle earlier in 2021.

After all of that we have enjoyed a great few days that included a visit to where the Darling and Murray rivers meet at Wentworth, walked the cliffs in Mungo National Park where man & woman walked over 20,000 years ago and we learned a lot about the foresight from the Chaffey brothers in setting up the irrigation settlement of Mildura in the 1860's.
Here is a little compilation of our photos.
