The drive from Brisbane to Townsville is so boring!! There is nothing to look at, aside from dead trees, road kill and road signs. We actually looked forward to the cane farms because it was nice to see something different and green! Justin did most of the driving so I had to put my co-pilot skills to use and come up with the conversation. Thats a lot of talking with not much material, which is why I mention road signs, did you know that there are different types of pictures of trains on road signs? Passanger trains and cane trains (some of the cane ones have different numbers of wheels also) and they sometimes face different directions. I also put it to Justin if he thought that maybe some artist has the train pictures as a career achievement. He thinks not and that its just clip art.
The other road signs I am contstantly looking out for are the winding roads and steep decents. I am not a good passanger when I see these, fortunately for Justin the short 10km strip where these signs appeared, I was driving, phew!
I took this photo for a reminder for Justin, he really dislikes Rocky as its the only Town where there is no bypass Road. He really needs to let it go.
What can be said about a big mango?
Thats a whole lot of Beast for one small truck! At least they seemed to be friends or they were just having a face off!
Yay - we made it!!
We stayed in a hotel on the Sunday night as our 'life' wasn't arriving till the next day. We decided to hit the hot spot, the only spot I suppose - THE STRAND! I saw my first celebrity - Wal from The Biggest Loser in his fireman uniform pushing the calendars.
