Australia Corowa

In early January we booked to see Cold Chisel at All Saints Estate winery near Corowa NSW with some friends. We decided to take the caravan and stay at Ball Park camp ground on the banks of the Murray River. Unfortunately the beginning of 2020 was marked with extensive bush fires in Victoria and NSW. It was no surprise that the drive up North was through thick smoke.

The one lane bridge at the border.

Wood carving outside the Corowa Footy Ground.

We settled in to the mostly deserted caravan park and enjoyed a drink...(note the name "Old Fart")

We explored the town and we're particularly impressed with the distillery.

We drove back into Victoria and admired the lovely buildings of Rutherglen. Also well known for its wineries.

We visited a small gold battery shed.

Due to the smoke the concert was cancelled but we still went to visit All Saints Estate.

These used to be the living quarters for the Chinese workers on the Estate.

We went for a drive to Byramine Brewery, west of Yarrawonga.

Mark and I shared the Ploughmans Platter and a couple of local brews.

On our way back we had a look at one of the many popular silo art in Tungamah.

We stopped to have a walk along banks of Lake Mulwala.

The old Toll Station.

We enjoyed a refreshing dip in the Murray before heading to the local RSL Club for dinner.
