Cape York Trip - Day 34

Passing through Mt Molloy we stopped for me to get a photo of the Hotel as relatives had the licence back in the 1930's.

There were also some interesting Mining relics, and a very good soldier's memorial.




At Mareeba Cemetery I was impressed by the display at the entry with all the names of those buried, but they were missing the vital ‘where’, so I have to call the council to get more information.

Atherton Cemeteries were a puzzle as there are 4! One has the main Highway running through it, but of course the first place we went was the wrong side. We had a lot of trouble finding the Pioneer Cemetery, and it turned out to be at the Waste Transfer Station and there was no sign on the road.

Just down the road was Herberton where we booked into the eccentric Wild River Caravan Park.
