10/2/22 Murray River - not the one you're thinking of

 

   Okay , we're back in the van and on the road again , well not far down the road while we wait for some new solar panels to arrive . We're staying at Pinjarra Holiday Park just out of Pinjarra , on the banks of the Murray River . There's a river walk on the property , so we headed out for a wander before it got too hot - the weather is just being constantly hot , still in the mid to high 30's ! The river is badly blocked up with fallen trees & branches , area's where all the timber has been caught are around each corner . The river is in a 5 - 8m deep valley and was flooding above this valley during winter last year .


   The water is clear and obviously reasonably healthy , supporting many fish - we could see several schools of fish up to 50cm in length .





   Back to the van and time for some reading and the air conditioning .


  The sun sets over the dry grass and parched paddocks to end another day
