Saturday 2 July
Day seventeen
Townsville - Rockhampton
We went to breakfast where we had dinner last
night and they made a mistake in our bill.
last night I was given the wrong dinner and
we were given the wrong wine.
Lucky we wont be here for lunch.....
By the way, last night they gave us the wine for free.
We stopped in Bowen, very windy.
We discovered that they film part of the movie
"Australia" there. The parts that are supposed
to be in Darwin. They used a lot of the old buildings
around town too, but they have been repainted now.
The old war airport for Catalina
Then we went to an old holidays place of ours as a family
Bucasia, at the resort Ko Huna.
We had very pleasant memories when the children were
young. We went few time there. The resort was new.
I did not take photos, it was very neglected, a
bit abandoned, it is for sale.
We had planned a spending a couple of days there
going down memory lane like we did
with Clifton Beach.
So we drove on to Rockhampton.
We arrived late and had no idea were to find a
restaurant. So we improvised.
Bread with cream cheese, a hard boiled egg,
a yogurt and a fruit with a glass of wine.
We did not sleep very much. The motel was
almost taken over by a group of New Zealanders.
They talked and smoked outside all night long.
