Renmark to Mildura

Found a good car wash in Mildura and it cost us $29 to wash the van.  It looks much better but still a long way from perfect. Also washed the Toyota so we look almost respectable again especially as we also got Bill a haircut. We have never really looked at Mildura so decided to spend two nights here.  In the morning we took a walk along the Murray River passing lots of houseboats of all sizes and conditions along the way. Decided to go out to Wentworth to see the confluence of the Darling and the Murray.  A pleasant drive out through Merbein passing lots grapevines etc.  Walked to the meeting of the waters along a narrow track which took about 20 minutes each way.  Looking across the junction of the rivers we could see a park, observation tower etc on the other bank so we hadn't needed to walk!  Then drove to find this park and climb up the tower etc.  Then it was lunch time so found a cafe and had the worst lunch of the trip.  Back at the van Bill began cleaning the red staining off the exterior of the van around the edges of all the hatches etc. Makes a tremendous difference to the appearance of the van.
