Yungaburra





We have taken a drive thru some smaller towns,  stopping off at info centres to find out what to see and do, before moving along.  Visited an icrecream factory, a dairy where they make chocolates and to- die for cheeses and stopped at Yungaburra.   Est. 1890 with lots of heritage listed buildings.   Nice walk around the village, we could have gone along the creek to view platypus and tree kangaroos but Rick wasnt that keen.   So we went out to see The Avenue of Honor built to honor the diggers who have been killed in Afghanistan.    Est. in June of last year.  Built on the shores of Lake Tinaroo it is a beautiful spot and once the gardens and avenue trees grow will be spectacular.   
Memorial on the left, for the dogs that have been killed in action. Merlin, Razz, Andy, Nova and Herbie.   Explosive Detection Dogs who gave their lives.
