The Police Speed Cameras were out in force today. We noticed 3 enroute today. Lets hope the cruise control was dialed in correctly :)

We're told this plant - Kapok (sp?) was used to stuff pillows in days gone by.

We found this little cafe on the beachfront at Horseshoe Cove just outside of Bowen. After lunch we enjoyed a short bushwalk to a lookout.

Saturday night at the caravan park we were treated to an Aussie BBQ and fed the family for $6, listened to some local entertainment, and enjoyed a fireworks display.
