Here is an update on the flood situation… Chooky did a post about her part of the country and I will follow on with mine. Chooky’s floods……
My hubby and I went out for brunch last Friday to a lovely cafe that opened during Covid. We are so lucky to have this lovely spot?
It was about 1/2 hour drive from home and on the way we followed the river. Here we stopped at Curlwa boat ramp. See the black box sticking out of the water, that’s the rubbish bin.
Then the Wentworth, NSW, boat ramp. You can see what was the seat for viewing. That black long rectangle on the right of the photo.
And the table and chairs for a picnic. No not today, Thank you.
Next we went to the park at Wentworth where it is covered in water.
There was the playground and you can see a little sign in the middle of the photo. This is where you usually stand to get great photos.
Then there is that log at the edge of the water. I was told today that the log is now covered in water.
We drove a bit further to lock 10.. Well a lock is usually at different heights but it is now just one level. The river and lock is the same height.
You might be able to see the trees in the centre on the left of the photo and the two rivers meet and are different colours. That’s the Darling and the Murray rivers that Chooky mentioned.

A bit different from when we were there earlier in the year. I dare say things are going to get a lot worse in your area before they get better. Thanks for sharing.
So scary with the water just getting higher… so sad for many .
Stay safe.
Thanks for taking us along. Amazing how much water there is and more to come.
That is a lot of water.
Such a shame to see everything covered in water. You certainly have had bad floods in your country recently.
interesting photos and terrible flooding...
Stay dry!
Oh, my goodness, that is a lot of water--and getting higher? Yikes!
Hope you all stay safe!
Hope you and your friends/family are all OK. Its been dreadful to watch.
Your photos really show how much the water has risen. And of course it is now a week later and all we can do here is watch the news reports. I hope everyone can stay safe.
Wow. I love the flooding photos, but I know how dangerous they can be. We get flash floods here that are super scary. Hope all was well when the waters retreated.
It was so good to talk to you yesterday!
So much water
Makes you realise just how much water there is when you see your photos.
