      Day 10

      June 6, 2018 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 13 °C

      Up early this morning nearly another frost here at Ravenshoe, time to move on from this cool place another long day 😂 about 80kms to our next destination the Tinaroo Dam holiday park. Along the way we stopped at the Mount Hypipamee crater for a look and the Dinner falls as well which was about a 2 km round trip walk, very interesting. Arrived at Tinaroo Dam about 11 stopped for some lunch and then went on a another tour around, first stop was the Gallo dairy, chocolate and cheese factory, had a look at the dairy and poddies have not really missed the smell of the dairy. Next on our avo tour was Malanda Falls, had a great swimming spot but a little cool today, into the township of Malanda and the girls did a spot of shopping at the local clothes shop, they picked up some goodies and then we had coffee and cake at the local bakery which was very good. The Curtain Fig Tree was next and an amazing natural wonder, north to Yungaburra to pick up some supplies for dinner and back to the van park for drinks around the Oz pig tonight 🥃👍Read more

      Quiet Day

      October 6, 2018 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 22 °C

      Today we decided to have a quiet and relaxing day, time to sit outside and enjoy the surroundings. We pottered around the caravan, slowly cleaning up in readiness to leave tomorrow.

      In the afternoon we drove to nearby Lake Tinaroo where there is a dam we were going to see. We drove to a couple of different spots on the lake and Cadbury had a swim and chased some sticks and we sat down to eat some fruit, including delicious locally grown strawberries from a farm near where we are staying.

      We did a supermarket shop in Atherton and then came back to the farm where we went down to the over one last time to see if we could see platypus. We saw a few but mainly on the opposite bank so not easy to take good photos. We went back to our caravan really hungry so we ate an early dinner of barbecued chicken (thank you Woollies!) and continued to pack down the caravan in readiness to leave early tomorrow for Cairns.

      In the evening we watched some old home videos of previous camping trips when the kids were little - very cute!
