Goolwa

 Pinch a picture of the river mouth.

Goolwa is at the mouth of the Murray river, the river that has caused so much flooding hundreds of miles to the north of here in this year (2011). Where the river water flows into the sea is unexpectedly very narrow. The mouth has had to be dredged continuously for the past 4 years, just to keep the passage open for local boats to pass between the river and the sea.


 Pinch a picture of the river mouth.

This more what it should look like but it is much fuller now.  Sorry no photo.


 Goolwa  the starting point of the Victor Harbour train.  Not that I am that interested in trains!  Oh,  really?

Waiting for the depart whistle in beautifully refurbished cars.  Looking so chilled.
