I am counting the days starting from the day that we left the Gold Coast.
Today we stayed in Mareeba and visited the Jaques coffee plantation, I took the tour while E stayed in the van. This plantation was the pioneer grower in Australia after migrating from Tanzania in 1970 and it was a very interesting experience seeing what they have achieved after some pretty serious setbacks. Then we travelled a little further out of town (Jaques is 10km from town) and visited an ice cream place had the best ever milkshake then got some ice cream which we have had for desert!
This place that we are staying at is great and we have kangaroos onsite in the morning. We also have another Western Australian here, haven't met them yet.
The dynamics of caravan parks is quite intriguing which I will discourse on at a later stage.
I have a few photos from the early part of the trip which I will share with you all. I still haven't worked out how to get more photos on my iPad so that may have to wait until we get to Darwin the show you up to date photos.
