On this episode we have parked up for a week on the Murray River. We have found a great spot by the river and met some lovely people here. Our first chat in this area is with Rod. He is a regular visitor to the area and loves any opportunity to camp by the Murray River.

There is so much to see and do in the area. Take a visit to the National Trust Byramine Homestead to see the former home of one of Australia’s earliest pioneers, Elizabeth Hume, take a wander through the 100 year old homestead at the Rich Glen Olives farm gate store. Explore the Sun Country on the Murray Farm Gate Trail, take a cruise on Lake Mulwala to experience the tranquil waters and glorious landscapes.

More for the car enthusiast is The Depot Historical Vehicle and Memorabilia Collection. Take your time here as you wander through this museum, there is something for everyone. Neville takes Phill through the great collection of cars and buses and there is even an Elvis display here also. You can easily spend a few hours. Check there website for times and prices. https://www.depotdeni.com.au/
