Lake Argyle is 36 kms off the Victoria Highway but well worth the trip & an excellent holiday park. Just before the turn off we passed in to Western Australia with a border post & confiscation of any fresh fruit. The time difference now puts us 4 hours behind NZ. Lake Argyle was completed in 1971 & is a storage lake for hydro power & the Ord River irrigation system that irrigates the fertile plains around Kunnanara.The lake when full could fill Sydney Harbour 50 times, which gives an idea of its size. Tonight we are camped at Kunnunara, which is not far from where we were yesterday, there is just so much to see around here
