HARRYS HUT

Had a big drive today, went down to Noosa and Maroochydore via the back roads via Harrys Hut.

This was over some dirt tracks to the head of the Noosa River going through the Cooloola Sand National Park, a very pretty and interesting trip. The water in the Noosa River at Harrys Hut is very stained by the tannins from the Melaleuca’s in the area and as it runs off the National Park which is all sand it is very clean although looks dirty.

Further on we went to Boreen Point which is on a large lake but as it is in the same river is also is brown, we stopped there for lunch.

We then went on to Noosa which is very crowded with lots of holidayers and lot and lots of accommodation of all kinds. Went on to Sunshine Plaza which is a big centre built over tributary of the river and very flash with restaurants looking over the water below.

Came home along a similar route to the morning, lots of dirt road with some kangaroos and two mobs of cows on the road we had to stop for. Had a great day.
