Day 15 - Emerald to Clermont 107 Kms

A great day. On the road at 5:30Am with a tail wind SSE at 30 Kms per hour gusting to 45 Kms per hour. Covered the 110 Kms in 3 hrs 54 averaging 30 Km per hour approx. Road undulating ascending 358 metres and descending 278 metres. Hoping for a tail wind tomorrow.

The Droving continues along the road

The Sculpture below celebrates The Australian Light Horse Brigade. The tradition of emu feathers in the Light Horseman's hat's began here.

A quick look around Clermont, which was subject to a massive flood in 1916 which killed 65 people.

Then off to Rubyvale to have a look at Sapphires.

Oh dear this could be expensive.

Oh Jan's happy

A lovely Pub at Rubyvale before shopping

The Commercial Hotel Clermont. Impressive.
