Shovel and I were up obscenely early on Friday morning to drive approximately 1,100kms from Mount Isa to Airlie Beach for the wedding of Amy (Shovel’s sister) and Zak. We stopped in Richmond for a steak sandwich at Treats for your Table a locally owned café serving homemade goods from an old weatherboard house on the main street, and arrived into Airlie Beach later that evening at around 9pm, after enjoying a curry for dinner in Bowen.
Amy & Zak's WeddingAmy and Zak were married on a private out-of-town beach. In March 2017, Airlie Beach was hit by a category 3 cyclone, known as Debbie, which produced winds of 150km/h and left homes destroyed, with insurance losses totalling almost $2 billion. Two years on it’s difficult to imagine the town had experienced such devastation, as the region is recovering, thanks to the combined support of local residents who rallied together to restore the paradise holiday destination.
