The story so far.... First stop Dabsie's son's place at Moore Beach Park 20mins past Buderberg. After 3 days drove upto Agnes Water and stayed at the Captain Cook Park at 1770. Here we met lots of family's doing the same as us travelling round Australia. (we only have time to go half way round!) Met a couple at our first camp site. We got on so well with them that we have stayed together since and will be travelling as far as Broome then we have to turn back.. (they have 18 mths!).
After 1770 Yeppoon 2days then an overnight at Sarina. From there Airlie big 4 park for 4 days where we met back up here with other families we'd met at 1770.
Crystal Creek next for an overnighter, 1 degree at night. Watched state of origin.
Mission Beach by the water for three nights. There still getting over the cyclone and lots of debri everywhere.
From Mission Beach we started going inland across the Savannah way. Innot hot springs next overnight stop. Freezing cold at night. Hot springs beautiful and warm, had to be careful we didn't burn ourselves.
Undara national park for 2 nights. Did the sunset tour to see the lava tubes with micro bats in them. Went for 15k bush walk.
Mt Surprise at the Bedrock park for 2 nights. Went fossicking, dug up topaz and quartz (not enough to give up work!).
Drove through George town had lunch at the Croydon pub onto Normanton. Here temp is 17 degrees at night (thank goodness over the cold). Had dinner at the famous purple pub.
Now at Karumba for 4 nights. Been on the barramundi farm tour this morning. Huge fish.. the boys are now on fishing tour. Awaiting there return!! Old Bill and she who must be obeyed for fish bbq tonight (cousin of a freind of Dabsie's - what a character!).Croc and crab tour tomorrow.
