We have been in Hughenden for a few days.Very hot when we arrived but a cooler breeze yesterday and today.Wedrove yp to Porcupine Gorge yesterday but had to return quicker than planned because of bushfires close to our road.(they have closed the road today).
We are going up to Mt Walker this evening to watch the sunset with a chicken and champagne picnic.
Tomorrow we are heading to Paronella Park near Innisfail to stay the night.It is a 1930s mansion built in the jungle and looks amazing.
