Days 47 to 58!!!!!
We travelled to Cobram Barooga Golf Resort.
At Cobram we had lunch at The Beach Cafe at Thompsons Beach! Just like being on the coast!
We also went fishing at Wattle Tree Beach (on the Murray).
Peter now calls Sheena Madam Carp (Sheena caught 2!!!!)
We played 2 games of golf at Cobram Barooga. We played both the Old and West courses – lovely to play. Each hole is individual -lots of doglegs.
Sheena didn’t play well! Pete did most of the time and consequently won convincingly both games.
Golf result after these games! Sheena 7 Peter 6
At Echuca (for the second time!) stayed at a caravan park with a great location – right on the Murray.
Had numerous swims in the pool – great!
Pete attempted to fish – got rid of all the worms.
Went for a kayak up the Murray -no fish caught but a great pedal/paddle.
Played Golf at Rich River in the comp. Peter had 41 points and I had 34. Peter was runner-up in the comp! Golf score is now 7 apiece.
We played the East Course. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Pot bunkers appear on a few of the holes. Sheena discovered some but Peter only went in 1 bunker all day!!!
We went to Torrumbarry Weir on the Murray. The history about the building of both the old and new weirs was fascinating. The use of ‘fish ladders’ to allow fish to swim upstream past the weir is ingenious.
Had Brunch at Morrisons Winery. YUMMY! On the Murray River – great setting! Lots of wildlife around and we purchased 3 Litres of a lovely Muscat. You put it in the freezer and have as a “slushy”.
Got a new car!!,!! A Mazda BT 50. We were having some issues with the Pathfinder.
Moved on to Barham. The car went great. Hot at Barham with not a lot to do other than golf!!
Played Barham Golf Course.
Great holes! Enjoyed the game even though Sheena got convincingly beaten by Peter. Similar score to the way Jason Day got beaten this morning by John Senden! It was hot playing.
Golf result is now Peter 8 Sheena 7!!!!!!!!! Sheena had better start getting her act together.
Moving on to Swan Hill – still on the Murray.
