Day 114

22/10/2009

Headed into Bundaberg this morning to see the Hinckley Aviation Museum telling the life story of Bert Hinckley who was one of the early pioneers of aviation. He held various flying records including the first solo flight from England to Australia, and the first west to east crossing of the southern Atlantic.

We also visited the Bundaberg brewery where they brew ginger beer. Shame the alcohol level has to be less than 0.5% by law. Might have to try brewing something a little stronger when we get home.

Moved further south in the afternoon and are starting to notice the cooler air, especially in the evenings. Had to use a sleeping bag last night.
