The great monument hunt at Boreen Point

On a recent trip to the Sunshine Coast in Queensland, we set out on a day trip from our lovely holiday apartment on Sunshine Beach (La Mer) and went to the North of Noosa for a bit of an explore.  I noticed something on the map called the Eliza Fraser Monument at Boreen Point.  So off we went.  Well finding this monument was not easy even though Boreen Point is a tiny place.  But my better half was determined that it wouldn’t get the better of him.  After casting around for over half an hour we finally found it.  I won’t give away the secret since that might spoil someone else’s fun.  Here is the monument we finally found.  It is ironic that the monument is to the person saved rather than to the convict who saved her!
