Albury

Today we travelled from Echuca along the Murrey River to Albury. On the way we went through Yarrawonga, a very small place with banners along the highway encouraging people to move there. Intrigued, we turned down a small road and in less than 100yards we came across this huge lake called Mulwala, formed by the Murrey River. There were lovely houses with lawns sloping gently down to the lake; so we now know why people might like to live there.

We walked around Albury this evening and came across a cheeky little bird in a park

and a solitary paddle steameron the Murrey. It was looking very lonely compared to the fleet at Echuca. Unfortunately it is unable to travel on the Murrey at the moment as here, the water level is too low.
