Driving most of the day we arrived at Emerald (a link to last years visit) in good time to settle into the caravan park we stayed in last year.
How nice was the spot that was reserved for us, under a big shady tree. The days were warm but the night were cool.
The second photo was taken in the evening and there was a campfire with people sitting around it listening to a country singer who sang 3 times in the week. Not my cup of tea.
Photo was taken from our caravan as it was only a stone throw away.
The birds came the next day so there was a rush to grab the camera and shoot.
Last photo if of an artificial tree in the shopping mall.
The population of Emerald is about 13,500 people.
Looks like a great place to camp, but a country singer would send me scurrying for cover!
ReplyDeleteWhere we were camped was excellent, close to everything.
DeleteNot that into country music myself, that country music is a no no for us that the man was singing, I did cringe a few times. I guess he did his best and it was pleasing for those that like that type of music.
It is a beautiful place to camp. Love it.
ReplyDeleteLovely where we were Krishna.
DeleteEchoing David. Cool nights would be blissful though.
ReplyDeleteOh they were :)
DeletePor lo que veo en la segunda foto hya muy buen ambiente en el camping.
ReplyDeleteBesos
It certainly was, and everyone was friendly.
DeleteCamping and music... a good combination.
ReplyDelete: )
It is a good combination if you like that type of music, but it's tolerated because many do like that kind of music.
DeleteNice shots again, liked that tree
ReplyDeleteMade a lovely shade for the day time sun Jo-Anne.
DeleteThat does look a great place to camp.
ReplyDeleteI like the tree, it does give a nice lot of shade.
All the best Jan
It did give plenty of shade which was good. Inland it can be rather warm during the day, and cold at night in winter.
DeleteWell you are certainly going north by the western route.
ReplyDeleteWatch out that for that Senator Fraser Anning - if you do see him
put the foot down on the accelerator!
Cheers

lol
DeleteDidn't see.
Cute bird
ReplyDeleteThey were lovely birds, nice to see them around in the winter of last year.
DeleteWe enjoyed looking around Emerald when we were there a few years ago. What is the name of the caravan park as it looks a bit different from the one we stayed at. We are planning another trip away and will be going to Emerald again. Thanks for your blog, really enjoying reading of your travels.
ReplyDeleteIt's Emerald Tourist Park, 43 Roberts St. Emerald, Queensland.
DeleteThe owners have improved the park but they are going to do more, it's rather nice and we would stay there again.
Thank you :)
You will hear the country music, whether you like it or not! The artificial tree is pretty.
ReplyDeleteOh how true Andrew, but it's turning a deaf ear at times to it.
DeleteDid record on my phone some of it, but cringed so deleted.
There were a couple of those artificial trees in the shopping centre and they did look attractive.
Nice looking place! For a moment I thought that the blooming tree was a real one.
ReplyDeleteFrom a distance it does look rather real, when I got up closer I recognised it wasn't.
DeleteAnother nice place...
ReplyDeleteIt is nice..
DeleteNice place to stay
ReplyDeleteIt was and well kept.
DeleteNice area, love the shady tree. I don't mind a bit of country music, but not all of it appeals to me.
ReplyDeleteSometimes we have to tolerate country music that is too country for me.
DeletePerfect photos, I love the pigeon.
ReplyDelete:) Thanks.
DeleteHello Margaret,
ReplyDeleteThat's looking very cozy.
Nice shots of the birds.
Greetings, Marco
Thanks Marco.
DeleteSo many deride pigeons... I think they are marvelous.
ReplyDeleteThey are noisy when there are several early in the morning.
