Today we decided to explore the Hervey Ranges and find the Heritage Tea House which was the former Eureka Hotel built over 150 years ago. Wow. What an interesting place steeped with the history of the cattlemen and travellers bringing the cattle and stores through the ranges from out west into Townsville and return.

Upon returning down the ranges back to the tourist park the temperatures have soured up to 34 degrees celcius. Whew - so time for a soak in the swimming pool. Thank goodness for the cooling breeze.
