Marlborough – Emu Park

Got an early start and headed down to Rockhampton. It’s a lovely gold boom town fully of beautiful Victorian architecture. Lots of lovely pubs with large verandahs and a bustling metropolis. Its nice to stop in a place like this. Moved on to Emu Park on our way to Yeppoon. It’s a really pretty place, but seriously lacking in trees. Its sitting on a point and there are tremendous views to be had via the huge hills that surround the point. There is a mix of old beach houses and lovely architect designed houses perched on cliffs. There is some howling winds around, and we have to choose our sleeping point carefully as the breeze was stiff throughout the night.
