river holiday

a couple of weekends ago borris otto and i went on a short local holiday to camp next to the murray river. we were meeting a friend who was on a house boat in a small landing area known as caloote.

this is the view from the river looking at caloote 

this is the house boat our friend was on

and the view of the river from caloote shores

we were mainly there as our friend susie and borris had a small performance to do on the shores of the river on the sunday night, but it was a good excuse to get away for a few nights too.

we went for a cruise down the river, otto likes the house boat

sitting at the front of the boat was really nice, here we are passing the murray princess tour boat

we had lunch on a small island on the river, with a large beautiful tree

more river cruising

otto out front of the boat

the sky and reflections in the river were beautiful

very inspiring

and relaxing

otto again :)

the view of some holiday homes on the river bank

it was the right time of year to visit, everything was green from spring and the summer power boats and water skiers were at a minimum.

more holiday homes on the river side

as the sun set over the river bank

it was a good time to use the star wars sun visor to keep our accommodation cool.
