Rockhampton and the Biggest

Hello there,
so now we are in Rockhampton and the rain has stopped. There are blue skies today, which are nice to see. I have been collecting, and observing signs and notes of the biggest, best, most, first, etc. I thought that I would share some from one brochure on Rockhampton just to give you an idea of how common these statements are:
- The beef capital of Australia
- beside the largest and most picturesque river in Queensland
- largest studding venue in the southern hemisphere.

But the brochure does not mention that there is a large military base here. There is Shoalwater Bay Military Training area, and the US and Australia are doing military training exercises there. The largest in Australia! Protesters are there highlighting the environmental and evil associated with these actions.
