Day 2 - Laanecoorie to Echuca

After breakfast we rearranged the car slightly. It will take some days to get things organised efficiently.
We then headed to Bendigo where we had a coffee at Quarry Hill Café and Larder.

As we had been to Bendigo before on several occasions we didn’t spend too much time exploring. After we visited the Tourist Information Centre we walked around the town centre for a bit before we drove on to Lake Weeroona where we had sandwiches for lunch.

On our way out of the city we passed the Botanical Gardens and we decided to have a look. It’s a lovely little park with a spacious bird cage with coloured lorikeets and parrots.

The lady at the information centre suggested visiting the pottery on the way to Echuca so that’s where we stopped next. It was impressive to see the massive old pottery kilns.

In the late afternoon we arrived at our basic campsite next to the Murray River near Echuca. There are lots of secluded camp sites on the river banks. The steep cliffs offer a lovely view over the river. Great spot!
