Back to Innisfail after farewelling my campdraft companions. Stayed a couple of nights back at the Garradunga Pub where the publican Cambo and his misses makes everyone so welcome.
But the rain! Tully and Innisfail have this competition going for the highest rainfall recorded, "The Golden Gumboot" award. Well I'm not interested who wins, someone else can record the downfalls! And just a little bit south looks far better weather. Time to go.
Checked out Lucinda, Dungeness, Halifax and Taylor's Beach and had a look at the Ingham Italian Festival before continuing on south.
Been stopping roadside for a while but when pulling into Jourama Falls NP a line from "The Castle" came to mind:
Dale Kerrigan: [voiceover] He loved the serenity of the place
Darryl Kerrigan: Hows the serenity?
Dale Kerrigan: [voiceover] I think he also just loved the word.
Darryl Kerrigan: So much serenity.
Darryl Kerrigan: Hows the serenity?
Dale Kerrigan: [voiceover] I think he also just loved the word.
Darryl Kerrigan: So much serenity.
