Poona

Poona. What a lovely name! It rolls off the tongue. It's a tiny coastal village about 30 mils south of Hervey Bay.

The unit complex where we live is 40 years old and a problem has occurred in the sewerage pipes at the foot of our building. As part of the repair, the water and sewerage was cut off for a day so we decided to go for a drive.

It was an absolutely gorgeous winter's day. In the distance is K'gari (Fraser Island).

The foreshore is lined with mangroves.

Trees abound.

A couple of the local houses. It's a very popular area for fishermen.

More about dugongs.

It was our first time visiting Poona and we thought it was a lovely place.
