Hi
All
It's
been nearly and month since I lasted updated our blog (too busy
dashing here and there and to many happy hours)
Bring
you up to-date on where we have been and what we have done since the
last update,
we
stayed at the Big4 Caravan Park Rockhampton for a week and had a good
look round the area, the highlights were Botanical Gardens, Chinese
Gardens, Mt Archer lookout and the Heritage Museum.
Rockhampton
has a small Zoo but is not that great a few dingo's monkeys, croc's
and birds but it's Free so not bad for the price.
We
then headed to Tannum Sands for a few days but this is where the
heavens open up and we were stuck there for 5 nights not a lot to do
as to much water around and lots of roads closed.
We
heard the Bruce Hwy south was open so we left Tannum Sands and headed
for Maryborough but only got to Miriam Vale and were told the bridge
had been closed.
There
were over 100 road trains parked up on bothsides of the Bruce Hwy in
the town centre.
We
found out that the road was open to Agnes Water and 1770 and that there
were caravan sites available so we headed to 1770 (which I thought
was a strange name for a town until to know the reason) Captain Cook
landed at this spot on 24th May 1770. We stayed here for a few days
and had look round the area which was very nice.
We
then headed to Hervey Bay for a few nights and caught up with Noel
and Judy for dinner and a few drinks, it was a great night. We went
to the markets on Saturday morning and had a good look around need to
spend more time around this area next time.
We
have booked into the Tewantin Caravan Park for 10 nights which is just
north of Noosa Qld (picked-up from Travel Auctions for $200 for 10
nights bargain
Lots to see around here long the Noosa Headlands, Sunshine Coast, the inland hinterlands just to name a few will post in next blog
