packed for houseboat holiday

Sunday 21 August

roadtrip to Moama via Wodonga (to catch up with Jordyn)

checked into Moama accommodation in time to watch Collingwood pip Carlton...Jodie and Lisa arrive not long after (they'd left Canberra on Friday and stopped in Wagga and Albury)

dinner at the Bowlo

Monday 22 August

checked out of the accomodation and headed into Echuca to wander the shops and have a late breakfast with the boat pick up at 3pm...

got the call that the houseboat would be ready early so we headed off to shop for groceries before getting on the houseboat just before 2pm...our timing was good as it started to rain after we were loaded...

after about an 50mins of instruction about the boat we mooring (to the bank) for the first night and were left to it!

Tuesday-Thursday

plan of attack most days was to move the boat mid-morning to a new spot and then just relax...

found a cache on each of Tuesday & Wednesday...

went for walks in the afternoon on each of Tuesday, Wednesday & Thursday...

did a recce run before Wendesday's walk to check out the route to the little shop at the Riverlander Holiday Park...lots of puddles to dodge on the 4WD track for the first/last 600m

Jodie made use of the spa after Wednesday's walk...

tried out my Origami Paddler for the first time...was fun!

Thursday was our longest move (3hrs upriver) as we headed back towards our Monday mooring spot so the trip to return the boat on Friday wouldn't take long as we had to be back by 10am...

Friday

I missed out on seeing the paddlersteamer "Emmylou" move past as I was in the shower...luckily footage was captured!

we handed the boat back a little early and were on the road home about 10:20am...we arrived back in Yass around 5pm...
