So I headed south...

Through Cardwell, which was battered by Tropical Cyclone Yasi in 2011.
 |
| One of the best beach views in Queensland |
 |
| Foreshore replanted with Calophyllum and Crinum |
Past the Hinchinbrook Channel
 |
| Full of crocodiles |
I went into Bowen to take photographs of the murals, which document some of the recent history of the place. (Next time, I'll photograph
all of them.)

| Goat cart |
 |
| Primary industry |

| WWII Catalinas |
To Gladstone, where the refinery looks disturbingly like something out of Lord of the Rings. You might remember the National Australia Bank from
Return of the King.
And into New South Wales.
The Warrumbungles are coming back from the 2013 bushfires.
Down to Varuna, the Writers' House, at Katoomba in the Blue Mountains.
Where I spent a week with four terrific writers and almost froze to death when I went to take some photos of the scenery.

| It's an okay view |
 |
| Yes, I'm being arty |
Then I returned to the Atherton Tablelands, where I am unlikely to freeze to death while taking photos.
 |
| Although I might get lost in the fog |
And now I have a rather long list of things to do.
