Mildura

I rowed into the "dockside cafe" at he Marina here in Mildura around 2.30 yesterday afternoon after a 6.45 am start (before sun up) and a lot of rowing into wind. Damn fine coffee. I also met some cheery locals who were interested in the boat and the trip.

I will slack off here for a couple days. Nice town.

Camp

Another nice spot. Bottle Bend.

Hospitality

I was passing a houseboat when
A chap on deck made the universal sign for a drink. As it was stinking hot and my water was hot and it looked like fun, I rowed over and had a cup of tea, some iced water and a chat. Ron and Matt and Lyn an Jen were having a few laughs about their luck with fishing. I was a bit sorry to leave their air conditioning so soon but I had picked my camp site and still had 8 km to do. Thanks folks, if you happen to read this blog.
