Monday...8 April 2013

Lazy start to the day today. We eventually got ourselves moving and went out to look at a couple of old houses that are part of the history of the area.
First was the Mildura Station Homestead. Very well presented and maintained.

While we were there we were able to watch a paddle steamer come through a loch right beside the homestead. Fascinating to see how it all happens.

Then we travelled back toward town to Rio Vista which means River View. A lovely old house which is now part of the Mildura Art Gallery complex. Some stunning wallpaper and wall panelling. And inlaid flooring.
