Mildura to Loxton…….Peace and Quiet.
The drive from Mildura to Loxton, our next chosen destination was easy....being able to drive on sealed roads was a luxury after the dirt that we'd been on for the last few days.
I found a campground at Loxton that had only just re-opened after the floods - Loxton Big 4 - and we were greeted like old friends.
Park was fantastic with everything clean, fresh and getting ready for a busy Easter.
We walked around the Murray River bend that the Park is located on and saw water marks several metres up the tree trunks, a reminder of how high the water rose....it was hard to imagine water at that height over such an expanse of land.....must have been really frightening for the locals.
Mud was still partially damp but cracked and drying by the river side....
Next morning was coffee (as usual) and then the last leg to Strathalbyn.
