 I knew you knew Werris Creek !  You wouldnt want to have to walk from my destination to Maleny. Long way. 

What sort of  place could this tree be found in ?

 And you are correct! Supposedly the hottest town in Australia. It was HOT  when we visited. 

Where to?

Nor have we been to Marble Bar. It was on the agenda for winter 2020, perhaps 2021.

 

Bill, looks like you are camped beside a racetrack, but where?

Yes, it is Pine Creek Race Club or as it is also known - Pussy Cat Flats.

Over to you Stuart.
