The Hume Weir [Albury] – 17 to 18 March 2012

2012.03.17 at 11h32m39s Bushtracker, Lake EildonWe enjoyed our time in Healesville and around Melbourne but it was time to head north again.

Our first camp was a very nice campsite at Ebden in the Boathaven Holiday Park on the Hume Weir at Albury.  Tricia has visited this area many times and has never seen the Hume Weir so full, which was exciting.  After all the floods the weir is truly full.

In the morning we drove to the Weir wall and went for a walk around the Lake Hume Tourist Park where Tricia and the children spent many happy days swimming  at the little beachfront, now mostly underwater.
