Central Australia 2014 - Day 18 Farina to Loxton 734km

We left bright and early.  As it was raining and freezing cold we didn’t do much sight seeing.  We saw open cut mines as we passed Leigh Creek.  We saw lots of Emus as we followed the Flinders Ranges. Lunch was at Peterborough.  At Morgan we crossed the Murray River by ferry then drove to Loxton where we spent the night.


Fact: At the height of the river trade, from the 1880's to 1910, Morgan was the busiest inland port in Australia.
