Moving on to Mildura

Packed up today to travel to Mildura about 85ks away, stopped at rest area for a cuppa and caught up with some fellow avanners who are in the avan club and heading to Pambula in NSW for the avan AGM had a nice chat before we both went separate ways, arrived at Buronga, just outside Mildura, looks a good site, $26 a night that's with pensioner discount and we got a riverside site. On the opposite side is the wharf where the paddle steamers leave from, made a bit of noise with the ships horn that Bentley wasn't impressed with!
We took a drive into town, has a nice mall with shops and we went to a bakery for a coffee, we decided on a cake each ( we usually share one ) and that would have been $8.40 for cakes but we could have 4 cakes for $10 so we bought 4, two with our coffee and two we brought back to camp, I had fruit flan and Brian vanilla slice, seem to be having a lot of cake the last few days, but why not we are enjoying it.
Tea tonight is leftover chicken pasta and garlic bread

  1. Murray River has so many great spots for camping ! Lovely by the river and nice shady sight. You may have to do another 5 km walk to earn more cake ! How is the mission on finding the best Vanilla slice going ? Can you take Bentley on a paddle steamer ride ? Keep relaxing and smiling as that is the feeling you get from your blog :-) :-) x x x x
