Maroochydore


Stopped for the night at Wooroolin and then Murgon before lobbing for a freeloader night with Chook and Deb at Eerwah ginger farm. Interesting checking out a working farm, doing both cattle and ginger, and the complications of growing ginger with the quarantine requirements to protect the crop and soil from contamination. These guys, in Eerwah near Gympie Queensland, are the biggest ginger growers in the world!


Then on to Maroochydore. Could be here, or here abouts, for a bit. Always something happening here. This weekend it's offshore powerboat races.

and they say horse racing is the sport of kings...
