Well today was to be the day when we finally got to put a hand on the sacred sign and stand at the Northernmost point of the Aussie mainland. This is just one of those things that you have to do at least once in your lifetime. A couple of hundred metre climb up and over a bunch of rocks and there it is in sight.....
The pointy bit at the top of Queensland!
Well, here we are all doing the obligatory poses in the howling wind and light rain. Not the way one would plan to do it but hey, we did it!
We decided to go back via the beach because the tide was low. Great move....not! We all got wet feet as we had no other choice but to walk through the little creeks. Oh well, all part of the adventure.
We jumped back in the car and decided to head out to Somerset for a look around and then do the '5 beach run' South before heading back to Punsand Bay.
Not a lot to see at Somerset but you do get an appreciation of what these early pioneers had to struggle with.
A bit of play time on the beach before we headed down the incredibly narrow track to give the car a few bush pinstripes!
