I know we've had a photo of this some time back so if you haven't seen it in person you may remember the other photo.  Where is it?

Perhaps Portland Victoria.

If I am close it would be the unloading facility, bauxite for the aluminium plant.

I have a confession to make. 

I would like to hand this over to Dunmowin for her last guess. To be honest, Im not 100% positive. When I posted it I thought Id be able to figure it out from my travel diary but no!! I thought it was Wallaroo. Lets not spend any more time. 

Sorry for this lapse of memory. disbelief

cheers Dianne

 I also a bit sorry as I have been at loss with with my thinking cap after I said Portland I found my 1976 photo and it was some what different. Then I dragged out the gun, storage for my photo collection, not Wallaroo. 

If that photo is on tye Yorke Peninsula my next guess would of been Port Giles.

Still a most interesting pnoto.

Ha ha oh a great mess Ive got us in. I did think Wallaroo but photos before are Snowtown, photos after after Point Turton. Would have been a strange route? But yes, I love the photo. Will Lorraine take us somewhere she KNOWS the answer to??

Sillier guess maybe.

Townsvile, Qld.

Only because of the brick work colours and the tropical scenery.

 nothing wrong with a silly guess. Townsville it is, on the Strand. This is Shazza and Bazza. Surprised none of regulars have it in their libraries.

Do you have any more silly spots Ralph?

 Good morning.

Yes it is Bill B.

We were doing a little exploring at the Info Centre looking for places to go around Roma.

Roma Gun Club Caravan Park proved to be good value.

Where we going next?
