Yeppoon to Airlie Beach

As we drive north it gets warmer; it was 32 degrees today. We passed fields and fields of sugarcane.

Tomorrow we go to the Whitsunday Islands on a sailboat; this is a group of 74 islands named by Captain James Cook when he explored the coast in 1770. He "discovered" them on Whit Sunday, which falls on the 7th Sunday after Easter.
