Red Elephants at Emu Park

We are at Emu Park and have been enjoying the hummmmm of the Singing Ship  as the sea breeze blows through this statue it produces a hum similar to a harp.

The Singing Ship

Today we went for a drive to the Byfield National Park and did the Stony Creek Walk.

On the way we stopped at Yeppoon, Grace wanted to visit Shell World.  They say they have over 20000 shells and I think they may be right.  We where told that one shell in particular was worth $40,000.  Can you imagine a wheel worth the same as a decent small car??

Lucky for me it was market day at Yeppoon the kids had a cake pop each and a lucky dip an I got a few craft ideas for when I return home.

We took a picnic lunch and enjoyed it by Stony Creek.  It was very picturesque, the is stony bottom but has clear clear water.  The walk passed through pine plantations, banksia's in flower and grevillea's

We forgot to pack our drink bottles so in true Bear Grilles style we filled up our chip packets and drunk direct from the creek.

Would you agree , its just beautiful.
