Gayndah, Queensland

Alway we when travelling this way we stop at Gayndah to buy some oranges and it is a citrus area, we have never stayed in Gayndah to explored the town of about 2,000 people because it's always morning time when we travel through.

Some photos of the 'long paddock' which means a grass verge of public road used as a source of pasture for cattle, sheep etc in times of drought in Australia.

This herd of cattle went for some distance with the drovers not too far away.













This is where we buy the oranges direct from the orchard, inside that orange is just information and advertising.

Gayndah Queensland.

After leaving Crows Nest we travelled through Gayndah in Queensland before we arrived to spend a few days in Mundubbera (a post from last year) where we stayed for several days last winter. This winter I didn't take hardly any photos because I had taken them all last year.

Gayndah is a small town with well under 2,000 people.  Oranges and Mandarins are grown in the area.  Called into the 'Big Orange' and what delightful oranges they were selling, the taste was delicious and much better than any orange we had eaten in two years from the supermarket.




Inside the big orange is a bit of history of oranges.
