Wentworth

Another two days off so we mucked around the caravan yesterday and did some more bits and pieces (I keep coming up with ways to make more space!!!) and had a lovely lunch at the Dockside Cafe by the new marina by the bridge to NSW in Mildura – here’s a piccie…its a lovely spot for a nice meal and wine :)

Today we drove to Wentworth which is back in to NSW.  The Darling and Murray rivers meet there and there is another lock which we wanted to have a look at.  Piccies below

We also stopped off to have a look through the old gaol.  Thank god we weren’t around in those days – makes prisons today look like hotels that’s for sure! Click on the photos to make bigger...some of the explanations are very interesting, particularly about the Salvation Army women!
