MON 17 - WED 19.07.2017: Yes, we have returned to Eumundi to revisit the markets - we were not joking when we advised that at our last market visit we had spent our allocated funds by the time we reached the end of the first row of stalls! SO, this time we are starting at the opposite end and slowly working our way past all the stalls. Soooo many shops, soooo many nice things to buy, soooo little money! Came back with many great purchases and thoroughly enjoyed our morning although the feet were rather weary. The town name is thought to be derived from "Ngumundi" or "Huomundy". This is the name of a local Aboriginal warrior said to have adopted escaped convict Bracefield as his son in 1831. Eumundi has the same quaint appeal as Morpeth and Leura in NSW. We are staying at the Eumundi markets car park which doubles up as an RV rest area. $15.00 per night with/without power. You are permitted to stay for two nights, plus you do not need to leave until 2.00pm the day of the markets which are open on a Wednesday and Saturday morning. Plenty of room, amenities, garbage bins and dump point. 
Amazing what a difference a day makes in a car park! Spent the evening at the Cooroy RV Stopover $10.00 per evening, unpowered, garbage bins and dump point.
