South Mission Beach

South Mission Beach is wet and horrible right now, but as we need a little remedial work done on the van we have to stay close to the place doing the job.

However, the van park has one redeeming point and that is that they have a cassowary that visits in the hope of scrounging a feed.

I never actually thought I would see one!

Here is the big chook just about to walk past our caravan.

The next day was miserable, cold and mainly overcast, but we managed to take a walk along the South Mission Beach itself and have a look at the place.

This is the view across to Dunk Island as seen from our camp site.

Looking south down the beach.

This is the main road along the beach.

We also took a drive along to the main Mission Beach and grabbed a coffee there. A nice enough little town, but it lacks a little something. Then again, miserable rainy weather will make anywhere look less than wonderful.
