Yesterday we traveled from Airlie Beach to just south of Townsville by about 20 km. staying at the bush Oasis Camper van park, which is across from the Billabong Sanctuary, a small animal park that was hit quite hard by a cyclone about two years ago and is just now starting to get going again.
the park is quite interesting and so took several hours looking around befor going to the camper park for the night .
Today I drove to Charters Towers about 90 minutes south west of Townsville, a old gold min town, Gold,Greed,Ghosts and Grandeur. second largest city on Queensland in 1880,s
the city has maintained it old buildings and is very interesting to just walk around which we did.
Tonight we will stay here and in the morning are off to Hughenden in search of he dinosaur trail.
