Dubbo to Jerilderie Unfortunately the rain hadn't stopped the next morning by the time we had eaten breakfast so I moved quickly to pack things up. Just as well we had left the caravan connected to the Hilux and only had to disconnect power and wind up the stabilising stays. As I finished the rain …
Goondiwindi - Dubbo We knew it was cold when we woke quite early. It was just after 6am and it was still dark. So we cuddled up under the covers until after 7am then quickly got up and dressed before eating breakfast. By the time we had packed up the caravan it was just after …
Hervey Bay to Goondiwindi Not my favourite things to be doing - arising early and heading south, all on the same day. However given we had a drive of just about 550 kms ahead of us it had to be done. With Goondiwindi our planned destination we were finished breakfast and packed up ready to …
Rainbow Beach to Hervey Bay Another moving day so we had eaten breakfast and packed up the caravan by 10:00 check out time. Mel had even taken a quick walk with us. Loved the bottlebrush flowers just coming into bloom in the caravan park gardens. Off we went. A perfect day, lots of blue sky …
Rainbow Beach Finally a day with a sunny start. After breakfast we did a quick bit of laundry. Once that was hung out we drove into Rainbow beach township. After parking the car at the beach end of the road we walked down the sealed ramp and onto the beach. This time we headed right, …
Tin Can Bay Earlier in the year when we decided to stay in this part of Queensland I was in two minds whether to stay in Rainbow Beach or nearby Tin Can Bay so curiosity got the better of us and we decided to drive around to Tin Can Bay. Great name isn't it. At …
Scarborough to Rainbow Beach Yet again it was raining so we ate a leisurely breakfast and kept an eye on the weather. In the end we very quickly packed up and hitched up the caravan just on check out time. Initially we drove west before turning north. Soon enough one of the Glasshouse Mountains came …
Toowoomba to Scarborough After eating breakfast and packing up the caravan we hitched up and set off. Firstly we drove through the main centre of Toowoomba, passing the Tourist Info Centre and the Botanic Gardens. Given Toowoomba is quite elevated it was no surprise to start descending soon after. However, the frequency of warning signs …
Toowoomba - Garden City Toowoomba enjoys the reputation of being a garden city. High up in more temperate Queensland, sitting on volcanic soil, plants thrive and so do the many gardens. We visited three possibilities but you should visit at least one. Our favourite was the - Toowoomba Japanese Garden - Ju Raku En The …
Warwick Disappointingly it was still raining the next morning so we took our time over breakfast and slowly packed up our caravan. We refueled and drove into the town, passing a lovely old stone church on the way. We had arranged to meet up with a third cousin of mine for lunch. Her Dad and …
