Day 47, Monday, February 27, 2006 Just north of Gunalda on the M1, (north of Gympie) is the Windsong Tea Garden. We had freshly baked scones with cream and passionfruit jam or strawberry jam. What could be better? Owner Barry Beaumont is also an entertainer, and he delighted us with a selection of Dean Martin favorites. Partner John MacDonnell operates a small circus and got us to help feed his two monkeys. There is also a gem shop and a miner's cabin with many items to tempt you. If you are in the vicinity, don't miss the Windsong Tea Garden.
The Town of 1770 (that's it's complete name) is on Bustard Bay (named after a variety of bush turkey) where Captain James Cook came ashore in May of that year. This is how it looks 236 years later.

Hey that last picture of the animal behind bars looked like close up of the first one a couple of days ago!!
Hope to get there one day if for no other reason than the Scones et al. Hope you are getting some exercise to go along with all that wonderful food. J&J
