We decided to take Bethany for a day trip up to Mildura. We’d been before and loved the place so it was her turn. First stop was Woodsies Gem Shop at Nichols Point. Her eyes were like saucers when she saw inside. So many gems and an Aladins Cave to explore.
Next stop was Orange World on the NSW side of the river for the best homemade orange gelato ever. We took the gelato down to the Murray River to watch the paddle steamers and it was a lovely site with the river in full flow after the recent rains. The paddle steamer we saw was hosting a wedding, what a place for your special day. You couldn’t beat the scenery.
Lastly it was a stop at Big Lizzie. She is certainly a unique piece of machinery.
We will have to visit Mildura for a few days next time and take Bethany on a paddle steamer ride as well as the many other activities up there.
