3rd. October  I was up at 5.30 and had
an hour or so in the mallee before

breakfast. We passed through mallee
to Kingston-on-Murray where again
we crossed the river by punt. There
was much less mallee from there to
Renmark, being mainly irrigation
round Barmerah and Berri.
   However after crossing the bridge
over the Murray just beyond Renmark
we got into the mallee again â”€ 90 miles
of it. We had lunch besides the
road where we frightened an EMU.
I spent quite a time there and at
many spots between our lunching
place and Mildura â”€ mallee or buloak -
belar parkland. Norm Favalaro's at night.
