The Fairleads at Townsville Harbour go out a long way
Magnetic Island was our destination
Looking back at Townsville
Coming in to Magnetic Island
The roots of this fig, form a curtain
Turtle sculpture along the Strand, Townsville
A Heron, waiting for a small fish or shrimp to swim by
This Gecko is swallowing a moth which is almost as big as it is
Our campsite at the Big4, Townsville. A bit ordinary and lots of permanent residents
Had to camp in the bush, as a huge thunderstorm was rolling in and we couln't make it to the campgrounds before dark
Looking across the vast sandflats at Yarrawonga
Trying to find the Yarrawonga camp grounds at Ilbilbie. A narrow track for a caravan to negotiate
The Count, I presume
The mangrove tress along the creek at Yeppoon, is home to thousands of fruit bats
Islands dot the coast off Yeppoon
Another island near Emu Park, where we stayed
Rosslyn Harbour, Yeppoon
The Singing Ship monument, to James Cook
Took a pic here in 1976, of Beryl, so thought another one 35 years later was appropriate
Sunrise over the beach
Mark captured this shot at just the right time
That's one big goanna
Tallebudgerra Creek roadbridge
The beach, opposite the van park
A glistening Cotton Harlequin Bug
Our campsite at Tallebudgerra Creek caravan park. A nice spot
The shoreline at the Blue Dolphin caravan park, Yamba, where we stayed for a few days
A very nice spot to stay at
Sunset from the lawn of the park
Overlooking the MacLean region. This area has a very strong Scottish history
The park even provides rest areas for the weary traveller
The 'gang'
A White Faced Heron, fishing the shallows
A trawler leaving for a nights fishing, at Yamba's breakwall
The start of the breakwall is home to a big family of Eastern Water Dragons
There are some big fellas amongst them
A local guy fishing for Luderick, or Blackfish as they are mostly called
C'mon fellas. One at a time
