Swan Hill Pioneer Settlement

"The Pioneer Settlement, in Swan Hill, Victoria, is Australia's first open-air museum, portraying life on the Murray in the era 1830-1930. It opened in 1966 as the Swan Hill Folk Museum, before being renamed, following a visit by the Queen in 1970."Wikipedia
The Pioneer Settlement provides a glimpse of life in the Mallee during the 1800's.

This old paddlesteamer is not going anywhere. It is undergoing a long term restoration but is open for the public to walk onto and see it inside. IT looks rather strange, moored right near the road.
