Day 45 Friday1st June
Here we go again up, up and away!!! Left park by 0815
Country side really didn’t change that much flat with not much to look at!
Reach a small town called Barcaldine, very well presented lots of bougainvillea’s of all different colours.
Quick bite of brekkie on our way again, this time heading for another small town called Emerald.
The views started to change lots more trees and a few hills!
We didn’t quite get to Emerald as we turned off just before and headed to a park on Lake Maraboon, home to a fresh water crayfish, known here as Red claw, which is supposed to be very tasty.
Once set up we were inundated with Rosella’s. they were quite tame, and very happy to sit on you. I did say sit! But they also did the other too!!!!!!! There were also some other birds that some guy told me they were called Apostle birds, because they flock together in 12’s. But they were also a pest because if you didn’t cover up your car mirrors with a bag, they will pull out the rubbers around the mirror!!!!!!
We are on our way again tomorrow this time heading for Bundaberg, so once again up early, pack and move!! Once we hit Bundaberg we start to head south!! Now that’s a bit of a worry!!!
