Renmark and then Loxton

The beautiful Murray River in Renmark and a few pelicans enjoying too.
Well we are still on catchup posts of trip and other friends blogs.
This post is of Monday 2nd July

And crossing over the border into South Australia at least the weather was warmer

Paul climber up this tower and you can just see him in the grill area filming 

Our second night at that great camp spot and we lit a fire  

Looking back to Winnie from the fire 


We love a good fire and I am the fire person lol 

Beautiful view for sure 


As we arrived at our next place Loxton I took a pic of this to remind us to go back.
Now Tuesday 3rd July 

We booked for one night at a local van park  in Loxton info on Loxton

We picked up some wingettes and sticks to bbq for our tea 

As we left our camp spot I went over to check out this tree 


Amazing and look how high up 1956 is more info here of that flood  

Lovely park here 

Baby gum tree growing next to old gum tree on the Murray River 


We then called in at that Pioneer village to have a look around 















Windmill selfie lol 




It was really good to visit here and then off we went to find our next destination 
Hope you are all enjoying as I play catchup. another post tomorrow ♥♥
