B ... is for BERRI

 Berri derives its name from the local aboriginal meaning  "A wide bend in the river" and is a small town in the Riverland of South Australia, on the River Murray.  

B is also for Banksia, a native plant which grows in the area

Last year we had a week in Berri with a group of friends and had a fantastic time, and found a few new places to visit.
A trip and dinner on the River Murray

Some birds but difficult to photograph


A morning on the Mini Golf course


Lunch at a winery and a sculpture of a pelican



A nice walk along the river bank







Berri is a nice drive from Adelaide and is about 240 km so we easily got there before lunch.  It was good to get there without a long drive so that we could get our caravan set up and still have time to enjoy the rest of the day with our friends.
