We travelled south west to Kingston SE in SA, then along the Coorong and round to Victor Harbor for a few days to see friends that we met in Darwin last year. While there we did a day cruise on the Coorong, to see the end of the Murray River, having been to Tom Groggin near the start of the river were it is a pretty little river to see the end was great.

I do hope you all like the photos that Ian & I have taken to show you what we have been up to over the last few months. From Victor Harbor we had to return to Victoria for a few days. Our next blog will take up in Horshorm, so see you all soon.
