85. Murray River, Kangaroo Island

THE RIVER MURRAY


The recent floods prevented us from travelling into southern Victoria. We headed south just before Mildura then west north of the flooded area then into SA. This photo shows us crossing the Murray River just a few kilometres from the point where the mighty river spills into the sea.



RAPID BAY

This area was originally mapped & surveyed by William Light in the 1800’s. It is a beautiful coastline with steep cliffs & rolling hills that reach down to the sea. We had only just reached the south east coastline of South Australia but were already falling for its beauty.



KI ; HERE WE COME

It was very exciting to get onto the Ferry to cross the waters to Kangaroo Island.
