Day 21. Ingham.

 **warning squillions of photos today, skip through if they don't interest you**


Went for a solo ride this morning ~3km, to read the history boards around town.


The railway was used to transport water to Townsville during WWII. 
Original pub burnt down. They built a temporary pub which is still there but disused. When the hwy went in they built another pub beside it in 1962.
Memorial at the Park.

A whole lane way of mosaics and paintings depicting the history of the Hinchinbrook area.  Remarkable artists.

We've had a change in our plans and decided to stay at the wetlands for the night. The view from our sites is pretty good, over looking the water, worth the $10 fee in my opinion. 

Went for a 2.7km walk around the bigger part of the wetlands.

Movie night again as there was too much cloud cover for satellite spotting.  Watched the Rocky Horror Show. Finished just as a light sprinkle of rain came down. 


Today we travelled 58kms.
Total travelled hitched 1455kms.
