My Journey Round The World

After the adventurous Fraser Island, we stopped in my first National Park: Eungella, close to Broken River, located in the subtropical rainforest. - And it’s where my camera stopped working… I guess the last 7 months intensive use and humidity didn’t help! - This part of Australia is recognised as the world’s most reliable place location for observing platypuses in the wild. Unfortunately it wasn’t the right timing and we didn’t see any… However we’ve seen plenty of turtles and a water snake!

Again information is very well spread with good leaflets: great! walk mackay highlands, giving you advices about the different day or night walks as well as safety advices! No wonder why Australians always seems to be so relax, taking life easy & a bit crazy. Everywhere you go you have information about how dangerous things are… I don’t remember to have seen so much warning in Europe… Bad luck, after the cyclone Ului (http://www.news.com.au/national/cyclone-ului-re-intensifies-to-category-3-crosses-coast-at-130am-sunday/story-e6frfkvr-1225843308177) last month most of the tracks were closed. As usual there was a café with snacks and good cakes where we found the address for our next camping site.
