THE SISTER TOWNS of KOONDROOK Vic and BARHAM NSW

 One of those strange situations where two Towns are separated by a State Border, in this case the Murray River. Both are tiny with Koondrook the smaller, a Pub and a shop and a Lions park beside the river. Across a great, old, one-lane, wooden Bridge and into Barham. Two Main Streets with two Pubs this time, an IGA Supermarket, a Garage, a couple of eateries and another Community Common by the Murray.
  I had previously checked out some Free Camps off the main Road and beside the River, along dirt roads and then rough tracks to clearings on the River bank. Theses didn't appeal so off to the Koondrook Riverside Caravan Park for $25, small and old but clean and with hot showers. Next morning was sightseeing and some photos. It only took about half an hour, they ARE small, then off along the Murray valley Hwy towards Mildura.
