Well it was time to leave Beechworth, we couldn’t stay there
forever, so we set off for our next place, Echuca an inland port on the Murray River. It was only a couple of hours away so we
could take our time.
We took a side road off the highway and went down the Milawa Gourmet
trail, which included wineries, cheeseries, olives, and olives. As it was only 10.30 in the morning s we
decided that sampling wine was probably the wrong thing to do, so instead went
to the Milawa Cheese Factory.
Mistake! Bought loads oh dear
and then some olives, and then some port of course to go with it all. Damn the diets buggered again.
Oh and Rod found another pie shop!

At Echuca we booked into the Nirebo Lodge Motel, right in
town which was great. What they forgot
to tell us was that it was completely surrounded by a building site, but don’t
worry they don’t start work until 7am…. Oh thanks, that’s good to hear. But it was okay! We stayed two night and the
bed was so comfortable..
Still in Echuca, but went out on a paddle steamer in the
morning. It was brilliant and sat with the driver as we quietly went down the
Murray Rivers. Lots of bird life,
Rivers Kites,Shrikes, Blue Wrens, shreaking white Parrokeats, and the lovely
Galahs with bright pink all down the front. No crocodiles though!
Thought we would go out for the night and have a good time, and this seemed a good place !
