Mission Beach

Yayınlanan: 23.09.2019

Note: Somehow the blog got mixed up with the order. This entry actually belongs between the waterfalls and Townsville.

In Mission Beach there is not much actually. But as the name suggests, there is a beach. And what a beach it is:


Originally, we only wanted to stay here for one night between our waterfall tour. But since we liked the beach so much, we decided to stay for one more night.

Workout on the beach

One member of our travel group had planned to jog barefoot along the entire beach and back in the evening. And he did it, but then complained about cramped calves for the next 3 days. It got better on Magnetic Island.

Camping like the big guys

There were also many Australians and permanent campers at the campsite. We had noticed this in other places as well, that Australians take camping seriously. But the converted buses into campers that we saw here highlighted this fact like hardly anything else.




On the trailer, the car could be towed behind the bus. After all, you want to be mobile on site. And just when you think it couldn't get any more absurd, someone takes it to the next level. We saw one of these bus owners in the morning, blowing his 'front yard' with a leaf blower that he had brought with him. Even though there were only two leaves on the entire concrete slab. But he relentlessly tracked them down and blew them away with all his might (towards the neighbor).

Cassowaries


They are supposedly large, prehistoric-looking birds that live in the rainforests here. Very colorful, usually peaceful but not harmless when they feel threatened. And supposedly important for the ecosystem because some fruits can only be digested by them, which is important because the seeds cannot germinate undigested(allegedly anyway).

However: we took every Cassowary hiking trail and every trail where they supposedly were constantly spotted - but to no avail.

By now, we have figured out that this bird does not exist and may never have existed. A nice but also mean trick of the tourism industry to fool us like this. But not with us, we are not stupid!!

Supposedly, this is what they are supposed to look like. We have rarely seen a more obvious photoshopped image.
