Visiting our old home region
After the Flinders Ranges we went back to country Victoria to see our nearest and dearest friends and family. On the way through South Australia we stopped off at one of our favourite free camps Cadell and this time we enjoyed it more because Ethan didn’t knock himself out. Was so exciting being back on the Murray. To swim and fish in a river with no crocs. Didn’t realise how much we missed it.
The next day we passed the place that makes our classy wine so we stock up and got to watch them unload the trucks.
That night we free camped in Nyah Recreation Reserve which I had wanted to stay at every time we have past through but was always to close to home this time we weren’t rushing so stopped in and it was a great spot.
Next day we made to Echuca/Tongala where we spent 10 days catching up with family and friends. It was so nice but never long enough. Got to meet my new niece which is always special.
We did a detour via Wedderburn to see some friends then we went and stayed with cousins in Seville which was amazing. Our kids had never met because… really life is busy and we take things for granted. The boys loved their new found cousins and their farm life on the edge of a city.
They gave us some local attractions that we didn’t even know exist. Was so awesome finding these hidden treasures that we had been passing all these years.
We caught up with our 2 dearest friends in Melbourne which was so nice as we miss them and seeing their girls grow up.
They saw and support us through our children but we are missing out on their children growing which is quite hard. Thank god for Snapchat as we get to see the girls beautiful faces every week and see their developments.
It was hard saying goodbye this time as we aren’t sure when we’ll back but it wasn’t as hard as the first time as we knew that there was so much to explore and we have made so many friends that we were going to visit.
Take care
