Anzac Day in Weipa.....

The dawn service in Weipa was very touching.

Took a drive to Pennefather Beach with a lovely couple we met named Monty and Elizabeth.  The track in was very soft sand!

Enjoying a cuppa with Monty & Elizabeth at Pennefather after we had a fish from the beach.

This is the Rio Tinto bauxite mine at Andoon.  We  did a guided tour......

.....and were able to get up close to the huge machinery in operation.

The is the site of the aborigihnal mission built in the 1880's at Mapoon.

The beach was very pretty
