This morning when we woke up the sun was shining and the view over the lake was just so nice. The ducks must have been happy too as they started this whole bathing ritual, all splashing around like crazy.
From our campsite it was a short drive to Tolga (via Tinaroo Dam). At Tolga we visited a wooden craft gallery with some beautiful artwork.
When we arrived in Mareeba we felt like coffee and what better place to stop than The Coffee Works.
The entree fee allowed us to try all the different coffees, chocolates and coffee liquors on display. You could eat and drink as much as desired. On top of that it gained us access to the museum which had a great setup with heaps of information about the history of coffee and all the different coffee tools/machines throughout the years. It was interesting to read and hear about the Dutch influence on the whole coffee industry.
We spent much longer in the museum then anticipated. It was just a really great place!
After lunch we did some grocery shopping and drove around Mareeba for a bit before heading to our campsite in Speewah. Not long after we set up camp it started raining again so we spend the evening watching a movie under our awning.
Woohoo! Go Dutchies!
