My wife and I recently visited Paronella Park in northern Queensland, South of Cairns. José Paronella, originally a baker from Spain, immigrated to Australia to make his fortune as a young man around the turn of the twentieth century. He first bought land and planted sugar cane—a very successful venture. Sugar cane is the main crop from central Queensland to the north. Millions of acres of it as far as the eye can see.
