We left Kerang yesterday and came through to the Holbrook farm in NSW passing through Echuca, where we looked at the paddle steamers; Shepparton, a large fruit growing area; Benalla, renowned for its rose gardens and trees, and Albury/Wodonga, twin cities, one in Victoria, the other in New South Wales, separated by the Murray River. We are spending the rest of the week here helping out on the farm which is stocked with cattle, wombats, kangaroos and rabbits. EF
