Walk around, a few chats at the park. Went to see Charlie, and they had Cool Rock of their own. A few nibbles and listened and watched the dancing. Joy is not feeling too good, so I bought KFC to cheer her up, hahaha.Read more

Well, a pleasant trip, not much roadwork. Stopped at Tiaro butcher yum. Also, a real meat pie from next door. Arrived just after midday, set up after 3 after having moved to a different site. Joy got washing done in our twin tub. I got the bikes going and went for a ride along the coast to the jetty.Read more

Days 2 Hervey Bay
June 15, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
Today was pleasantly different. Drive around to Point Vernon. Then plants from roadside stall. Drive south to have lunch at Waterfront Restaurant, very, very nice, views to Fraser Island. Spoke with a couple from WA, been on the road since November last, due back to WA October, not a bad holiday. Went to the marine, couldn't get over high the water mark is. Left there and ice cream shop, sat bench looking at the pier eating. No tea tonight I reckon. All, in all, enjoyable.Read more
TravelerWas a wonderful day 💗 😊

Day 3 Hervey Bay
June 16, 2023 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 16 °C
Very cold morning up here. Got the bikes going today. Went to bike track on the foreshore and headed up Point Vernon. The track is well done, and it is a pleasure to ride. Back to the van, it turns out around a 16km round trip. After lunch went up the street to a few things. Back to van and different neighbours. A good day.Read more
TravelerHervey Bay is great for bikes I’m sure - you’re getting fit while looking around 👍🏼

Nanango
June 24, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 18 °C
Arrived around 12.30 at the showground, very helpful caretakers. Set up done, head to the local for lunch, very enjoyable. Rang nursing home, Charlie doing good after his visit to hospital last night. Brought our Aldi twin tub with us, Joy's got it going good. Washing all done and dry. Went for a walk around the showground, don't think they could ever fill up, it's huge. So peaceful here.Read more

Nanango 2
June 25, 2023 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 17 °C
Another beautiful morning Nanango, breakfast overlooking the paddocks of showground. Head to Kingaroy and only a short drive. Not much open on a Sunday, reminded me of years ago when shops closed Saturday noon and reopen till Monday, how times have changed. Didn't worry about peanuts. The town is bigger than I remember. Stopped in at Lavender Farm in the way back, seen lots of plants that would have been cutting originally, a bit disappointing. Plenty of old furniture and concrete shapes. Headed back IGA and bought a few supplies.Read more

Blackbutt sg
June 26, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 11 °C
On our way to Blackbutt, stopping for morning tea at Yarraman for morning tea, got to love a bakery. Then, had a look at Yarraman Weir Park, a place we will return for a ride on the trail. Then, off to Blackbutt and the showground. About to walk up to town, chap needed a hand with jockey wheel, he is his 80s we found out. Anyway, got talking, told how he could read before school and a lot of things. Joy just come to the point, do you believe there's a God, flattering denied there's a God. So we had a unique discussion. In the end, his wife goes to the Catholic church, and he stays at home. Walk to town, had a look around, and headed back. He approached us and asked if we would like to come over later, we did, the conversation didn't turn to God. Hopefully, will be able to help him in the morning with his water tank, then off to Brisbane to see Jason and his family.Read more

Blackbutt to Riverhills
June 27, 2023 in Australia ⋅ 🌙 13 °C
Help neighbour with water issue. Stopped at IGA for pies and chocolate milk. Off we went down the road. First stop st Toogoolawah, nice little town. Joy bought some birthday presents at a little shop there. Part of Trail ride this town. Off again and decided to have lunch at Lake Wivenhoe, as the pictures show, a beautiful spot. We tried a little black box, which works as an oven, same say warmer, whatever way, the 2 pies I put at Blackbutt turned out magnificent. Headed to Riverhills, had wonderful time with Kelly and girls before Jason arrived home. It was a very enjoyable night with the kids. We had Thai for tea, very yummy.
Oh, download the Wikicamps new version as well.Read more
TravelerWe stopped over night at Toogoolawah - it is a lovely little town

Tweed
June 28, 2023 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C
Spent night at Jason's. Started the day with scrabbled eggs Kelly made for us, didn't see Jason, he leaves around 5.30am. Had a beautiful morning with Isla, Lana, and Kelly. Left around 10.30 for Tweed. Set up and went to Rainbow Beach to meet up with Michelle. It turns out all her and Jim's family were there, including Henny and her tribe from Norway, and Gavin and his partner. Where spoilt with fish and chips at their apartment overlooking the sea. Left there and returned to cp. Had a chat with neighbour, turns we had done a lot of similar things when where younger. Told us pizza where being sold at cp, so indulge in meatlovers, yum. Well, last night away. Solicitors at 10am, see Charlie then home. It's been a wonderful trip.Read more
