To get from the Fleurieu Penisula to Victoria we drove through Robe and because a lot of people told us that this seaside town was worth a stopover we decided to stay here one night during our roadtrip. From Victor Harbor we drove up north to get over the Murray River and of course take a picture in front of it:)

The night before we booked a room at the Motor Inn which is right in front of the Foodland supermarket and that turned out to be perfect for us. Not only was the room great with a dining area and a big plasma and dvd player ( dvd's are for rent at Foodland, 3 AUD per dvd ) but the owners...

At the Cleland Conservation Park you'll find all kinds of protected wildlife from the tasmanian devil and the koala to the kangaroo, emu and the yellow footed rock wallaby.
