Cania Gorge

Tuesday was a travelling day. We arose quite early and set off into the country to Cania Gorge National Park where we had booked ourselves into a site for five nights. Renee's parents had stayed here quite recently and enjoyed the bush walking that the area had to offer.
We passed through rich farmland (and an area delightfully called Litttle Wonga) rising steadily into the hills past lonely homesteads and small farming communities eventually stopping off at Gayndah which claims to be the oldest town in Queensland where we found an open bakery who made us a very nice chicken and cheese roll consumed in the air conditioning of our car.
We continued on into the area known as Three Moons before arriving at the gorge in early afternoon.
