Day 50
Heading home, Sally and Colin
planned to stop just south of Townsville at a local fish wholesaler where our
friends in Cairns regularly purchase fish and scallops and they had offered to
bring some fresh coral trout and scallops back to Cairns. Walking around the warehouse they struggled
to find the entrance. Eventually, they
found a small blackboard next to a locked door stating. Closed on Wednesdays. Cunning plan foiled. They then called in to Maccas in Townsville hoping for some egg and bacon muffins but again the rug pulled out as the power was out at maccas and they were turning away customers.
Continuing north, they passed the Spirit of Queensland heading the opposite direction.

Many more cane fields and the obligatory
wait for a fully laden cane train.

Calling into Innisvale, they
finally got their muffins then the familiar drive back to Cairns.

Now to complete this blog, Colin just
has to work on all the travel stats.
