The morning was spent exploring Swan Hill, a very well laid out town with nice wide roads and good pedestrian walkways it has   all the usual services and the people were very friendly.

The afternoon was spent exploring the Murray River from the Pioneer Settlement paddle boat. The trip took an hour and only made one trip a day so we didn't want to miss it as we would have to have waited 24hrs to make the trip.
 Water levels on the Murray was very low and I don't think we would have wanted either to fall in or drink it, as it made the Brisbane river look like a pristine lake !!!




 Clare showing off her camera skills, subject matter was a great benefit as the picture shows but all kidding aside she did catch my good side !!
Clare gave me the camera back and as you can see she made the Murray River look a real picture...
All in all we had a pleasant afternoon and will probably return to the Pioneer Settlement tomorrow as we missed many of the historic features, as it is only a short walk from our caravan park.
