Driving through the country!

So much to see along and up the Hume Highway, Newell Highway and Highways in between to the State of Queensland.
Across on the ship to Melbourne, Australia after a good dinner on board, great sleep in the cabin and up at 5.30am to get ready for breakfast, then down the decks to hop in the car and off the ship about 6.45am, then up over the Westgate Bridge without being held up and therefore well onto the thousands of klms to drive to see our son and his family. 
We eat breakfast at each motel we stop at after our big sleep, lunch at a cafe, and dinner in a restaurant sometimes in our room or in the dinning room of the motel if there is a dinning room.

Whilst I am gone from home, someone takes my father shopping etc. plus we talk everyday.

The Murray River, Tocumwal NSW

The River is high as you can see the sign, and not the post it's on.

Murray River Cod, Tocumwal, NSW

The levee bank was made so that when the Murray River flooded that part of the town didn't become the same.

Ross, Tasmania

Ross the town is classed as being in the midlands of Tasmania, Australia.  It's a very tidy town with heaps of history.

The bridge was built by convicts in 1836 and is the 3rd oldest bridge still in use in Australia.

I have taken a few photos of the bridge over time, but never there at the right time of the day to get a good shot.  The camera I used to take the photos below was an old digital, so that in it's self tells me I must drive down in springtime or summer and take some more photos of the Ross Bridge.  I want to be able to zoom in and take digital photos of the carvings of the bridge.  I have some lovely slides of the bridge.

The Man O' Ross Hotel built in 1831 has now gone into liquidation as it's owned by a firm from another city.  Let's hope someone can buy it, would be a shame to see it neglected.
