We are now on the coast, Ball Bay to be exact. Let me take a few steps back to some previous stops and highlights. 1. Ball Bay it's name appealed to us as it had a fun ring to it. 2. Porcupine Gorge, a relaxing time and a walk down into the gorge. 3. The Tree of life where the Australian Labour Party was formed (Barcaldine) 4. A Vincent Van Gough standing proudly beside another excellent Information centre. Leaving Ball Bay today and slowly heading north🧡 . . . #coastalaustralia #outback #nationalgeographic #greatoutdoors #motorhoming #letsgomotorhomes #australianlandscape #lifeatno22nz #traveloz #oz #tropicalnorthqueensland

After leaving Charters Towers which had and still has for some the prestigious title of "The World" beside its name. WHY? Due to the town having everything a civilised person could want or need. We decided we weren't and it didn't for us and so on we travel to a Freedom camping spot beside a river to spend time by a camp fire eating marshmallows and reminiscing🧡 . . . #queensland #campfire #campingaustralia #campinglifestyle #lifestyleblogger #lifeatno22nz #outback #northernqueensland #winter2019 #charterstowers #australianlandscape #australia #outbackqueensland

Before departing our lakeside camping spot at Yungaburra (Atherton Tablelands) on the 9th August, we headed to Peterson Creek to view a platypus or two. Sure enough within minutes the Squire spotted a couple. This was definitely our highlight for the day. We then headed to a small rainforest to view an enormous Curtain Figtree and a waterfall. Ending our day Freedom Camping a few hundred kms away at Ferguson Creek and enjoying another amazing sunset🧡 . . . #northernqueensland #queensland #camping #australianlandscape #tropicalnorthqueensland #lifeatno22nz #winter2019 #creatingmemories #justgo #motorhoming #australiangeographic #yungaburra #athertontablelands

Yesterday's gem and history lesson came via a visit to Hou Wang Miau in Atherton. Though the Chinese named their small village Cedar Camp. As with most history there is unbelievable events and sadness. After WW1 and the introduction of the White Australia policy, all business's were evenually shut down and its 500 residents left. The Temple is the only surviving example of an intact 'timber & tin' Chinese temple in Australia. It's exterior is constructed of local timbers and corrugated iron, belies the rich and evocative atmosphere inside created by original carvings, painted metal wall panels and furnishings imported from China in the late 19th and early 20th Century. Now cared for by the National Trust which was donated by local Chinese families. After our visit we headed to town for a walk using the Rail Trail it was so quiet all we could hear were the birds happily chirping 🧡 . . . #athertontablelands #chinese #chinesehistory #temple #nationalhistoricalmuseum #tropicalnorthqueensland #exploreaustralia #lifeatno22nz #traveloz #lifestyleblogger #australiaroadtrip #queensland
