at the showgrounds there and grabbing some "McDonald's" for lunch we headed to Yarrawonga
were there is a huge weir across the River Murray (photo) which creates a huge lake called Lake Mulwala, behind it which enables irrigation on a large scale around this area of Victoria for fruit, vegetables and dairy industries. We did some food shopping at Yarrawonga, but found prices rather high, but that maybe due to the Easter holidays here, as a lot of Victorians spend their holidays here (and everywhere else too!- there were plenty of campers at our previous camp site as well). So after taking a look at the weir and hundreds of European Carp swimming around below the
weir we carried on eastwards for a further 20kms. and stopped at a nice camp called "Parolas Bend"
beside the Ovens River in a state park.
