Sugar cane

I didn't mention the sugar cane did I! There are acres and acres of the stuff - used in the Ginger Beer and the Bundaberg Rum and I don't now what else. And of course this is why the infamous cane toad was imported to Queensland. I've not seen anyone licking one yet (though some of the bushy-bearded men look like they may be closet cane-toad lickers). In fact I've not seen a cane toad!

There are lots of little single-guage railway tracks crossing the road at about 2 km intervals. The warning signs say 'cane railway'. Daniel had told me about these yesterday - he'd noticed hem when he drove out to the beach at Moore Park. I noticed them myself this morning. It's not clear whether they are still used. The lines are very rusty.
