does not get better than this

Uneventful trip from Capricorn Caves to 1770 (suburb). Beautiful, peaceful site…

Not your usual trip to church this morning… the driver (Jennifer) was breathalysed! After church we travelled to Rosslyn on the coast for lunch and a walk along the beach.

… and before dinner we sat by the fire pit with a glass of wine along with other fellow travellers…

A 2km walk including many stairs provided a great vista for camera and drone photography.

Interesting “dry” caves set in a “dry” rain forest. Our tour meandered its way through narrow passages which opened into vast chasms. The largest was the Cathedral chasm.

Volunteers were invited to test the acoustics… Jennifer sang “Amazing Grace”!

 

Another clear, warm day. Panoramic view of Rockhampton shot from Mt Archer lookout

…and a view towards the ocean (opposite direction towards Yeppoon)

Many birds about, these were just 2 that we saw at the top of Mt Archer…

Editing essays while away… now that’s dedication!

A clear sky, no wind, minimal light at The Caves (25kms North of Rockhampton) was the setting for these photos. Exposure ranged from 15 – 30sec, hence the “blurring” caused by the Earths rotation on the longer exposures!

We were about to head out for the day when I locked the caravan door, with the keys inside 😖!! It should not have been possible but it did happen (due to what the locksmith determined later was a product fault). We finally got into the caravan but the morning was a wipe out.

In the afternoon we toured the Bundaberg Rum Distillery. Great Aussie business and range of products.
