Damn.... So I was trying to keep this quiet till after my daughters 21st as we wanted to surprise her for her birthday, but the secret is out. We are back. We blew the car up on the highway an hour south of Bundaberg. As you can see by the picture we had to get a tow all the way to Port Macquarie. Yes 10 hours on a tow truck. My butt was so sore. Hubby had and interview for a job in Port Mac but we didn't make it. We had a stopover at the free camp just south of the border in a place called Yelgun. Top spot but need to keep in mind this is for the truckies. So one night is all you can stay. Thought we had cracked the head but turns out it was a blocked radiator and blown head gasket. I was stranded for two weeks at a beautiful caravan park in Port Macquarie. Melaleuca on Hastings River Dr, while John worked in Newcastle and I waited for the car to get fixed. After the repairs and the tow, this has put a huge hole in the fun fund, so we need to start over again and work till Christmas or so to cover the cost. We are couch surfing with family until the end of April and then will house sit for friends till Xmas. Hubby got work and I'll need a job too. Sad face. So if anyway knows of anything please let me know. What a hiccup. We've learnt some valuable lessons along the way and will live to travel again. Will catch up with everyone soon. Blog you later.
