Great coverage Mick and great edit Cheers mate 🍷🍷🍺🍺👍👍
Glad you enjoyed it, thank you.
Thanks Mick and Sally. Always a great watch and listen :)
Glad you enjoyed it, we are off tomorrow to film between Mannum and Blanchtown. Hopefully the weather will allow for some great shots.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 Hi Mick & Sally
Look forward to seeing your Mannum footage, we were at the Mannum Caravan Park when you filmed around Loxton etc, so will be interesting to see the water’s ingress since we were there.
As always a great video 👍
Thanks interesting tour, Enjoyed, 🤠🦘🦘🇦🇺
Cheers, glad you liked it.👍
My wife and I drove through Renmark and Blanchetown to Nurioopta from Griffith NSW in late October. Just made it through the Murrumbidgee at Carrathool. Never seen so much water everywhere and i mean everywhere. A once in a life time opportunity which you and your wife have captured beautifully. Cheers
You are so correct, it is something that we only see one in our lifetime if we are lucky. Glad you enjoyed the video, thank you.
Thank you Mick and Sally, a very professional production. Well done
Cheers, thank you.
Thank you so much for this video, Mother Nature at her best with more to come. Stay safe everyone
Thank you, all the best.
Thank you for sharing , enjoyed the trip, interesting with all the floods .
There certainly is a lot of water up there, thanks for watching.
Another top video, thanks for adding the date. Dates are great as it tells you what season it is.
Thank you, yes the dates are a big part of a video like this one.
Thanks Mick 😊 Great video & views of the mighty Murray in flood 😊
I think the drone makes it look the part.
Another informative video guys.
I bet this flood will help flush out the mouth of the Murray.
Are you guys going to do a before and after on that.
Cheers 🇭🇲😀👍🍻🍻
Thank you, glad you enjoyed the video. I doubt that we will get to the Murray Mouth on this flood, possible but I doubt it as with Christmas coming up we are running out of spare time.
More good vids Mick. This will be a great historical record in later years.
Thank you.
History, one of the better things about social media content.
Thanks for sharing, great to see as we can’t do a quick tour ourselves, well done on the clip , nice editing
Glad you enjoyed it
Thankyou. I know these areas very well. Did a lot of canoeing there as a child.
Thanks for watching.
Hi mick and sally. 👋
Thank you both for sharing these videos
My wife and myself are moving to Renmark in the new year and it's great to see what's happening there atm
I know the worst is yet to come.
Love the videos and the commentary
Hopefully we might even catch up in the new year. 👍
Lucky you as you are moving to a great location, enjoy it when you do get there. Perhaps we may run into each other at Renmark at some stage, have a great Christmas.
Being an old Berri boy and having a daughter and lots of mates still up there and also a tanker driver in the oil/fuel industry for 43 years I do enjoy your very professional videos on your channel. Also did see a lot of the 56 flood as a 10yo helping my dad and others patrolling and building flood banks. Well done.
Thank you, I bet you have many memories both good and bad about the 56 flood plus many other floods since.
Thanks for the look around Mick, as you say amazing the amount of rain fall to achieve this amount of flooding. I spent quite a bit of time in Murray Bridge off an on working on project at TFI meatworks. We toured the local place like Mannum , Talium Bend, didn't get to travel too far as only had Sunday off each week if lucky.
Cheers mate, definitely something different to look at with all of the water laying about.
Thank you for the two vlogs...shared with the family interstate as we have visited towns on the Murray Echuca to Goolwa ( Mannum/ Murray Bridge next week). Hard to take in the sheer volume of flow - the spread and seeing places we have visited going under. Jan Adelaide
Thanks for sharing!
It'll be amazing to see how green the place will be in the months to come.
The country will change for the better no doubt.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 It's a pity that all of that water can't be channelized into the north of the state.
Top Job.......Great video work....any better and we'll have you steering Road Trains...LOL
Thank you.
Every group has one, you must be mine, cheers😃👌
Again well documented and great coverage. Without your drones eye view we cant begin to appreciate just how far some of this water spreads out. Yesterday the water might well have been only 30 to 40 cm from going over the Bookpurnong Rd.
Yes the drone adds to the video, no doubt about that. Sounds like the road will shut very shortly.
The extent of flooding is incomprehensible, you do show us well the amount of difference and what is happening . 👍❤️
So much water, almost hard to get the mind around but then that is nature.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 nature is powerful
Great drone footage Mick. You guys certainly have had some rain. What about further north on the road to Darwin? Any big detours coming up? The news footage of the flooding we see in NZ is nothing like what you are showing Mick. Thanks for sharing.
From what I am aware most of this water has come from upstream from within the river catchment areas. Sure we have had some rain in South Australia but I don't think it is the real cause of what we are currently experiencing. The wet season is starting early this year up north but as yet it has no effect on roads up and down between Darwin and Adelaide.
Well reported again. This is the information we need to get out there. We'll worth a look.
Obviously if it gets to a stage where people should stay away, that message will be put out.
Hopefully not too much damage to property, nor injury to people.by the end of the day.
The media are doing a great job with updates, it must be so different today compared to when the great 1956 flood took place.
Hi mick I live on the Victoria NSW border in a small town where the Murray river starts
It will be high the flooding was high here about 7 weeks ago
Cheers dean
S.A. is expecting a lot of water. It is amazing to see so many of the Australian communities Australia wide effected by this flood event, something that can't be compared to a bush fire. I wasn't aware that it was the worst flood in 150 years at Echuca and Moama.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 yes we went through the 2020 bushfires as well I am about 120km up river from Albury Wodonga in a little town
Thanks for the video Mick. I loved the drone footage. Amazing. Did you notice whether the SS Ellen reserve was under water? It is next to the ferry at Lyrup and is a great little camp spot with 4 powered sites.
I didn't go over the ferry at all so if it is on the Lyrup side of the river, I can't comment, sorry.
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 Mick thanks for your reply. Last Saturday night my wife and I binge watched your videos while on baby sitting duty. I can appreciate the effort that goes into producing your videos. I uploaded bits and pieces from our trips up until we sold our RV in 2019. The longest and only actual road trip was this one th-cam.com/video/HwngC4U3C04/w-d-xo.html
Keep up the good work. Cheers Ken
@@Ken-Kaef Thanks Ken, shall check your like out👌
Thank you for this, it is 6 years since we left the Riverland and have not been back or seen much of it since! This is totally amazing to see how far the water is spreading across the land! I thought it will be good for the ground and trees but my son informs me it is black water and so will be killing off the trees, I hope that is not so! I lived in Renmark for over 20 years and never saw it like this! I am really enjoying you showing me it all!
Thank you, glad you are enjoying the videos. I would have though that the water would have been moving too fast to be classed as black water but I am no expert on that part of nature. One would think that in the long run the river could only benefit from a good flush out.
I wouldn't call it Black Water, that implies still water, full of tannins. The problem is, a lot of the areas flooding, you'd call salt pans, there's salt sitting on the surface, or was! That salt is causing the river's salinity to rise, and the backwaters are becoming brackish. Black Water can be brackish, but not all brackish water can be termed Black Water, it's the tannins, rather than the salt, that it's named for. I could be wrong about how much tannin is in the flood water, but it's the salt that's the problem I'd say.
@@Dave-Rough-Diamond-Dunn ok
@@justcruisinwithmicksally837 I'm just trying to make sense of it.
My connection to water conditions, is as a horticulturist, and an aquarist. I don't claim to be right, I'm just trying to share what I know about the subject, in hopes that others can tell me where I have it wrong. 🙂
Great shots, thanks Mick. We could use some of that water on the Mississippi River up here in the states.
Did you get a new box/bed for your pickup? Stay safe!
Thank you, we will send a few gallons over your way if you like😁👌. We have had a new aluminum canopy made and fitted to our vehicle, there will be a video on our channel this coming Saturday morning.👍
Hi Mick. Thanks for a couple of great videos. Wonderful to see all the flooding along the Murray with someone who has been through it and all the devistation that has been caused. It seems that the whole world has gone crazy. All the lakes here in the Rotorua area are at the highest that I have ever seen Where has our summer gone? Meanwhile you take care and look after each other
Glad you enjoyed it, we seem to have missed out on our Spring weather here but the river system will benefit greatly by this event that we are now having. Cheers and take care.
I'm impressed with the way you show the route you're travelling. Are you able to tell me what software you use to do that?
It is an phone/iPad app called TravelBoast.
Hey Mick it's a 100 giga litres the sign says in "1000s of mega litres a day". 1000 x 1000000 Litres = 1gigalitre x 100 =100 gigalitres.
Cheers, so much water to get one's mind around.
Any time estimates on when the waters will be back to normal? So amazing the amount of water just keeps coming
All unknown as it is too early to predict due to what is still happening upstream interstate.
Local talk here around Waikerie, it will be "sometime" before it gets back to high nornal, possibly Easter. It depends on the rainfall in the eastern states and whats still sitting around there. Lots of factors to consider and no answer either wrong or right
Excuse my ignorance Mick
But what do the " locks" actually do?
On a normal river flow season, the locks hold back the water to keep the river at a constant water level.

One can't beat nature at it's best.
Great video.What drown are you using?
Thank you, glad you liked it.
I use a Mavic Air S2 Drone.
Mick, how do you do the little red car on the map, I’d like to do that. Cheers
It is done with a phone or iPad app called TravelBoast
It’s tragic for some but part of Australia
Yes we can't or shouldn't interfere with mother nature.
May I ask what software you use to edit all the footage?
