East Coast Explorer

Leaving Noosa is always a bit sad. Securing a spot at Noosa River Park feels like hitting the jackpot, as sites are allocated based on the triple D system: someone has to DIE, get DIVORCED, or simply decide they DON'T want to come anymore!

Our next destination was the quaint town of 1770 and Agnes Water, where we indulged in more swimming, breathtaking sunsets, and delightful coffee. We had the pleasure of catching up with Richard and Teena from Point Lonsdale and uncovered the history behind the town's name. The town of 1770 is named after the year when James Cook made his second landing in Australia on the shores of what is now known as Seventeen Seventy.

On the road again for a couple of nights in Tannum Sands with our old mate Geoffrey and partner Robyn. They were great hosts, Geoff cooked as one of his world famous roast dinners and we played 500 until way passed our bed time. They showed us around the Gladstone area by foot, bike and car.

Next we had a over night stop at a Beach just south of Mackay . Bob thought he would try his luck fishing after seeing a 12 year old pull in a huge flathead.... we had sausages for dinner.

Now we are at Hydaway Bay just above the Whitsundays. This is as far North as we are going. Not much happening here, just the usual sunsets, swimming and coffee.Weiterlesen
