Hey guys, we've loved watching your travels. For us, it's been much more enjoyable to watch you guys vs other TH-camrs out there because you guys haven't been flogging s&*t off every episode and jamming new vans and cars down our throats that you've been given etc - you're more relatable for everyday people and families. We are taking off ourselves just after Xmas for 18 months and we can't wait.
Thanks for watching, we are just trying to be ourselves. How exciting! We hope you have an amazing time!
Great Episode. Great Locations... One Day
One day
Smash the I-pad, dad. 😂😂😂 awh. Oh, ok, don't. Great discipline, dad. Well done. What has 5 toes and is not your foot?

Windy Whyalla! Yep. Been there. 😂
The wind is next level there! 😂
@@chasinganadventure been to Renmark too. Top spot
On the mark with the lock idea, when are we house boat shopping
Have been looking!
Welcome to the Riverland , great little place , hope you got to have a look around and smaller towns like Moorook , Kingston on Murray
Such a nice place to visit
The lock is solely for the travel of the boats up and down the river. Think of it as a step. There is a dam wall on the other side that holds the water back to somewhat control the water level
The lock does serve that purpose yes but it’s also does control the flow of the river. Very interesting concept that’s for sure 😊…. Thanks for watching
Lake Bonney, is one of the first places we took our kids camping years ago and then returned with our grandkids. Not sure if you follow Jack and Megan but they camped in the same spot as you guys not long ago. Renmark is also one of our favs, the town is so green and clean, they are both only 2-2.5 hours from home.
Oh that’s lovely. Great spot Lake Bonney. Renmark is such a well looked after town. Stunning!
Lock concept correct!
Such an interesting thing to watch!
@@chasinganadventure, you are pretty much correct in your description of how a Lock works.
The Locks and weirs were put in to help control the flow of the river and to allow passage of the paddle steamers up and down the river, this was done to allow movement of goods, stock produce and people back in the early 1900’s when road travel wasn’t as easy as it is today.Now they mainly see houseboats and dinghies but still operate pretty much the same.
The weirs also control the flow so that is always water in the river,it is maintained at specific pool levels so that the towns along the river will always be able to access water to support the towns people and the growing of produce can be maintained. If they weren’t there the river could potentially run dry.
We work hard at the Lock to maintain it and the surrounds so that it is enjoyable for all who visit.👍😎
Enjoy your trip.
did you go to manning in s.a plus where does the water drain to at the loch
Nah we didn’t stop by manning, the water is just transferred in and out of river in lock. 😊
