Thirsty work…
Situated in Yandina on the Sunshine Coast, Queensland, Yandina Hotel was established by Australian pioneers. Yandina was a staging depot on the route between Brisbane and the Gold fields in Gympie. Besides the gold rush there were a number of additional thirsty tasks such as building roads and railways, clearing land and harvesting sugar cane. John Sommer built the Australian Hotel in Yandina around 1887. He was granted a licence in 1889. However, he discovered he had built it in the wrong position (Gympie Road). As a result, in 1891 the Australian Hotel was hitched up to a team of bullocks and moved on skids to Yandina Hotel’s present site in Stevens Street.
