Airlie Beach QLD

Argh Queensland - beautiful one day, cyclonic the next!

A long travel day today, made even longer by slow roadworks zones along the Bruce Highway and an unscheduled stop at Jayco Mackay to resolve an issue with the caravan’s hot water system - fortunately a quick and simple one button fix.

What started as a beautiful sunny morning soon gave way to drizzle and grey skies. Along the way I had plenty of time to perfect the fine art of windscreen photography from a moving vehicle at 100 km/h. Hardly award-winning material, but it did keep me entertained for at least a few minutes 😂

We finally rolled into Discovery Parks Airlie Beach around 3:30 pm under sunny skies, only for the rain to return just in time for us to unhitch the van and set up camp. The weather clearly has a sense of humour 😐

Channeling positive vibes for tomorrow’s Whitsundays boat cruise 🤞🏼Read more
