Our Weekend in Echuca Moama - Part 2

One of the highlights of our weekend away was a trip on a paddlesteamer. We chose the PS Canberra - primarily because we could get the pram on board! I was interested to see that she actually celebrated 100 years this last weekend.

Here are a few photos taken during our one hour cruise:

An iconic scene.

Each of the girls was given a turn at the wheel, and received a certificate to prove it!


Captain Charlotte (with help from Mum).


The weather was very hot and sunny, so enjoying an icecream was high up on the agenda.

The epitome of happiness!


The other thing we couldn't miss was the traditional evening drive to see the Christmas lights. This giant Santa was just off the road leading to our accommodation, and the girls were fascinated by it.


There was no missing this Santa!


As Christmas approaches again (believe it or not, the supermarket already has fruit mince pies for sale!) it's nice to look back on what we did last year. Perhaps we should make it a family tradition!
