Rollingstone


Not being lovers of the city we pressed on past Townsville and settled into camp in time to watch the sunset over the water.

I suspect that is a cane fire we can see in the distance. There seem to be a few places where cane is still burnt before harvesting or perhaps they are burning the chaff on the ground after harvesting, I noticed some of that happening.

  1. What an idyllic place to be setting up camp.

  2. You have chosen a simply beautiful spot for camping. Waking up there must be something.

  3. Looks a much better spot than town.

  4. Yep it was a great spot BUT the campsites by the water were a LOOOONG way from the amenities, not so good for a van without a loo.

  5. Watch out for crocs, they are around and love mangroves. Queue scary music here.

    1. Didn't see croc signs until we went further north. But as I don't venture into the water it didn't really matter.

Windy August

Tumbleweed It was August (known to be a windy month of the year) and it was blowing a gale.  Tumbleweeds hurtled across our path, pressed forward by the busy wind. While I was photographing the tumbleweed, I braved the icy blast to find a few more tiny flowers and fruits by the roadside.

The Pinnacles, Broken Hill Clear blue sky is very dull!  But there is something of interest in the image.  These odd shaped mountains appear on the skyline just outside the city. I had planned otherwise for my closing sky today.  On a hill outside town there are wonderful sandstone sculptures which I saw the last time I was here. I planned to photograph them against the setting sun but we left our run too late, so you don’t get to see them until our return journey.
