Meningie to VC

We stayed overnight in Miningie which was next to Lake Albert – a significant part of the Coorong National Park which joins Lake Alexandria.  Our van site was right next to the lake where we observed the pelicans feasting on the abundance of food as well as lots of ducks.  A very tranquil setting!  The smaller lake seemed to be never ending but we also discovered Alexandria was massive and seemed like the ocean in width and length.  When we looked at the map we discovered that we could travel from Meningie around to Narrung to Raukkan (an Aboriginal community) where the old church is featured on the $50 note!  We boarded the 24hr ferry across the Narrows where Albert meets Alexandrina and we also saw Point Malcolm Lighthouse – the only inland lighthouse in the southern hemisphere. We arrived across the Murray River from Wellington where we had to cross yet another 24hr ferry where loads of cars motorhomes and trucks were waiting when we got on to the town side!  We then made our way to Milang, a small community right next to Lake Alexandrina on the other side of where we had already visited!  We had lunch here and looked at the jetty, the marble sculpture and then decided we would head to Victor Harbor.
