The other side of the country

In response to Dave's pics of New Zealand I thought I'd post a couple of the nicer ones I took when I travelled to North Queensland recently. The trip was for work, but over the three days I was there I actually only had to work for approximately 2 hours so the rest of the time was spent travelling around inthe hire car and looking at the beautiful countryside.

Tully, the town in which we stayed, has the highest average rainfall in the country - about 5 metres per year - and as such all the vegetation is a deep, lush green. Humidity aside, it was fantastic.
