Day 285 (Monday 15th September 08) Got a reasonably good night's sleep as no one else moved us on. Drove down to park near the pier and started walking out to the end. Watched the pelicans, cormorants and fish. Chatted to some of the local fishermen and saw a massive fish that one of them had caught. Whilst we were there watching one of the guys reeled in a massive mack-tuna which they then threw back as they said it wasn't good eating. We would have had it! The...

Day 284 (Sunday 14th September 08) Up and moved on early from the car park so don't get a fine! Headed upto Hervey Bay. Once we arrived found somewhere to make some lunch and then went for a look around Hervey Bay. Played some cards and went for a wander on the beach. Went across to use the internet and charge up the phone. Managed to get on Skype again before she closed up. Went off to a car park to cook ourselves some food and then started to bed down for th...

Day 283 (Saturday 13th September 08) Another early start we are living by the sunrise and sunset at the moment. The parking spaces all around us were already filled up by 6am with people setting up for the market. Had something to eat and tried to sort out our things a bit in the camper. Went off for a wander around the Market, read in our Oz book that it is meant to be the best in Australia. It was really good but would have been better if we could buy things! ...

Day 282 (Friday 12th September 08) A better night's sleep as we weren't so cold. Up by 6am and soon on our way up the coast again. Saw a few Kangaroos close to the road as we started driving which was awesome. Further along spotted one Kangaroo which was right by the road waiting to cross. A very long day of driving again swapping every so often. Carried on through Brisbane and headed up to Noosa as we were planning to stay there for the night. Noticed as soon ...

Day 281 (Thursday 11th September 08) Woke up after a very cold sleepless night. Hoping that we aren't going to find it this cold every night! Had a banana for breakfast and got on our way heading further up the coast to see again how far we could get. Decided that we would stick to 80km/hr to save money on the petrol as we weren't in a huge rush. Drove all day to reach Coffs Harbour swapping the driving regularly. Saw some very nice scenery on the way. Arrived i...
