Trip Day Sixteen: Sunday, October 7, 2007     

Papenoo Valley Water Crossing

1805-CrossingDam-071007-231p""

Locals Play At The River
Folks were out in every sort of conveyance on this Sunday afternoon. We saw not a few motorbikes and motorcycles on the road, but pickups seemed to be the vehicle of choice. Many went down the highways with their families riding in the bed of the pickup. I wonder if there are some dunes somewhere for this dune buggy-like vehicle to show its stuff.

This water crossing is strictly oneway. Traffic in the other direction takes the bridge.
