    Its fair to say the caravan site in Maryborough wasn't one of our favourites. It was an odd little park which was literally the old gravel carpark for the nearby marina.

    However, we really liked Maryborough. It is a very historic country town with a beautiful city centre. Highlights included Queens Park with its monuments, art pieces and a train track for maintenance of trains as well as steam train rides on Thursdays. We took the dogs on their first train ride - Bo was not impressed! Bosley took it all in his stride however.

    Maryborough had a memorable and moving WW1 memorial which was extremely well done, and heart wrenching. It also had Mary Poppins statues, museums, and walk signals due to the author being born there.
