998 kilometres from the mouth.

Left about 8:30 and headed for a stop at the Wemen shop which was about an hour away.  Left the magnificent machine next to a very high bank and scrambled up to the shop.  Got some bread and that was it.  Should have enough of everything.  The only thing in doubt is drinking water.  Will fill my daily supply up tonight and boil some river water if I need to.
Passed a group of school children from Frankston in Canadian canoes and later saw someone setting up their kitchen on a sand bar.
It was a good day for sailing.  I paddled all the way but the wind gave me some extra speed.  Almost in every reach.  They nearly all point North. 
Two cuttings today,  “retail” and “taupalin”  each took out 8 k.  They both were well established and not a problem.
Tonight,  as most nights,  I’m camped on the Victorian side and I  can hear goats on the NSW side.  All through the day they were on the NSW side.  The last  time on the  Victorian side was ages back.
You might be able to see them.

It’s 111 to Mildura from here so hopefully one big day and one small one.  Just have to see how it pans out.

No phone reception so this won’t be uploaded for a couple of days.
