Open day on houseboats @ Mannum

Leisurely drive to Mannum this morning to check out the houseboats "OPEN FOR INSPECTION" all weekend.
 

Memorial gates
 

PS Marion paddle steamer cruising along the Murray river
 

 

Engine room on PS Marion
 

 

Wheel house
 

 

Mighty Murray river in full flow. Locals say it will be at least 2 years before the level of the river drops. La Nina has brought NEW LIFE back to the river.
 

 

 

 

 

 

Punt across the river & great free camping on the other side
 

 

 

Unforgettable 6. Bobs cousin Bobby & his wife Lyn & 10 friends have booked this houseboat next March. WOW has just been refitted & has all the mod cons, spa, cocktail bar, 6 bedrooms. I'm sure they will have a fantastic time. We rang them & told them we were down here looking at the houseboats & as luck would have it, it was open for inspection.
