10 September – Wednesday
The fisherman did quite well yesterday – he made a pelican and crane very happy! Lots of bites, all the chicken was eaten, one small fish was caught (that is why the pelican was happy.
This morning we headed to the Ginger Factory at Yaldina, not that we like ginger at all, but they have a very nice gift shop – and LOTS of very mature aged tourists on bus tours! As a bonus, we discovered that across the road was a macadamia processing place, complete with shop, and also a coffee centre. A very enjoyable area. On the return journey, we called into what we thought was a small farm stall selling cheap strawberries. It turned out to be a large fruit and vegetable outlet – very large and very cheap. They even had red paw paws!
Diane, Cameron, Michael and Emma arrived shortly before we returned, so great excitement all round, especially from Michael when he discovered the eels. Cameron enjoyed his north Queensland coffee. They are still gross, as far as I am concerned. This afternoon the boys headed over the road to the river in an attempt to find the best fishing spot – and hopefully catch a fish big enough to keep.
