29th April 2012 - Mannum - Victor Harbour



A drizzly day today but NOT cold.  Have decided to pack up and head towards a caravan park at Victor Harbor.  Mannum has been a really beautiful place to stop for a couple of days but it is now time to hit the road again.  We are going to travel through little towns called Pallamana & Monarto, off the main roads and then down through Strathalbyn to Victor Harbor.  At the moment Barry is over excited about having a race across the Murray with the other ferry.  Our ferry "Won"....small things amuse small  minds I guess. :)  Lunch at Strathalbyn which is a very quaint little town dating back to 1839.  Lovely little sandstone houses that look like old miners cottages but much, much nicer.  Drove through Currency Creek where there is a winery on our way to Victor Harbor.  A magnificent old house, definitely going back to have a look around and maybe even buy some wine ....Finished the day with a beautiful sunset camped right by the beach with fish & chips from the Victor Harbor runner up "award winning fishery".....too good.
