Bundaberg

Attempting to sleep on a train is not the most comfortable of places, but not impossible. We each got a few hours sleep and arrived in Bundaberg at 9am Sunday morning. After dropping off our luggage we did some exploring. Bundaberg is quite a small town. Similar to the towns in the further North of Queensland. There are a number of shops in the CBD (the town centre), the usual chains and a number of privately owned shops and cafes  which is always nice to see. You wouldn’t really expect the town to have many tourists, as its not really on the coast, and we only stopped there to check out the rum distillery, but there are a large amount of backpackers staying in Bundaberg as there is lots of farm work in the surrounding areas.

Whilst looking in the window of an estate agents we found this.
By far the best real estate advertisement I have ever seen.  You’d usually expect it to be listed as a property that needs a little TLC, but not in Bundy! I couldn’t help but think is this possibly the only honest estate agents in the world?

We got some food, but then the train lag caught up with us so we had an early night, as we wanted to be fresh for the Bundaberg Rum distillery the following morning!

Bundaberg is home to some beautiful Queenslander houses.
