Update from the
Murray River
Cy and I have arrived at Tocumwal completing 325 km of rowing/paddling. Only 1885 km to go!
The current is easing and we have been very lucky with the weather and the section between Yarrawonga and Tocumwal has pristine beaches all along assuring us guaranteed campsites.
Next week we aim for Barmah National park and Echuca.
​
More soon, thanks for your support and following.
