Heading For Winton
Well I am heading over for Winton once again this year for the V8 Supercar Round from May 18. I am heading over on Thursday 17 to stay with my Uncle, Auntie and cousins before heading up to Winton on Friday morning. I have managed to get cheap accomodation again although not at Mansfield this time, I have chosen to stay at Yarrawonga instead. Yarrawonga is about an hours drive north of Winton, whereas where I stayed at Mansfield was almost 1.5hrs south of Winton.
Yarrawonga is on the banks of Lake Mulwala which is a man made lake, part of the Murray River. Mulwala is also the name of the town on the opposite side of the River in NSW, a bit like Albury Wodonga, Echuca Moama, they are effectively one town, but because the Murray is the NSW/Victoria border so they are seperate towns.
I chose this location instead of Mansfield due to the location near the Murray and my desire to get some photos of the Murray in it’s current drought state. I am staying at Murray Valley Resort – its actual location is 36° 1′11.50″S 145°59′41.74″E. It looks like an ok place, from the sky at least
. Well that is it for now, lunch has finished I gotta get back to watching live timing, I mean gotta get back to work





I’d be interested in seeing your pics on the Murray. Last time I was there it seemed fine(in terms of water), altho I was canoeing so I guess its a bit different. Good luck with the shots ^_^
Yeah I look forward to getting the camera out quite a bit on the trip. Not sure where I am going to go, but I have been searching around the internet looking for places to go around the area.
