Mackay

I stopped in Mackay for a day and did not find it especially exciting; most people seem to do a stop-over on their way as I did.

Surrounded by those typical tyre repair stores found in general in bigger cities’ suburbs, the centre is about one block and a half where it is difficult to find any food after 7:00 PM.

The botanic gardens are recent and some parts still under construction; also they are very close to the highway from Darwin to Cairns. Since I visited Rockhampton’s gardens first, I guess it’s normal to be somewhat disappointed with these, so let’s give them a few years to grow and absorb urban noise.

At least the weather and the pool at the motel were enjoyable.
