Renmark, SA

Tue 17 Mar 1998

We set out from Nuriootpa to drive to Renmark.

The road offered little of interest.

We passed through a fruit fly check point. Having stocked up well in Nuriootpa, we stuffed ourselves with all the fruit we could eat and still had to dump a considerable amount.

Re-visiting the bridge at Renmark brought back bitter memories of the convoy from Sydney which was supposed to cross this bridge. The bridge lacked about four feet in width so a detour to Loxton in the failing light and without any preparation became necessary.

We visited Lock 5 just down the road before settling in to the caravan park on the river.
