Day 51, Friday, March 3, 2006 Sarina is just south of the city of Mackay, and as with most of the East Coast, has outstanding beaches. North of Mackay are numerous sugar cane fields, serviced by a narrow gauge railroad, about 2 feet. We stopped at Bowen for the night and took a walk along the beaches which are interspersed with huge rock outcrops. The sunsets are spectacular. At the Whitsunday Sands Resort where we stayed is a little restaurant called Gilligan’s. Sharron had Singapore Noodles with heaps of vegetables and I had the Crusted Pork Loin Chop, topped with onion and apple in a red wine sauce on a pumpkin base. Both meals were outstanding. If you find yourself in Bowen, try Gilligan’s.
