Not Maryborough again!!!

I received a call from the bank early this morning, the bank clerk and myself are now friends, and she advised me that I couldnt complete my business in Bundeberg today or tomorrow because if was the 'Bundy Show' (two days public holidays). So, you guessed it, we were back to Maryborough again...

Not Maryborough again!!!

We stayed at Wongi as long as we could which was about 1.30pm. By 9.00am we were the sole occupants so it was simply peaceful and luxurious. We did our washing, aired all our bedding, had our first solar showers (the best) and generally basked in the sun. Reluctantly we packed up again and...

Maryborough

We left the busy Gympie for Maryborough. We found a parking area for longer vehicles and started exploring the town. Maryborough celebrates the fact that the author of Mary Poppins lived there for a period of time. I was trying to organise some business matters and was stymied at every turn. ...

A Little Serendipity

It's 10:00 pm Melbourne time, and I'm hanging out at the airport with Dave and Maddy -- having just sneakily gotten myself on their flight back up to Thailand. Once I discovered the Chapmans (or the Chapanese, as Carl has taken to calling Dave and Maddy) were headed for Koh Samui on the same...

49 hours in transit... and a new home

Well, we have made it home to good old wintery Canberra, but not without some unexpected travel adventures. We arrived at the airport at 7:30pm Thursday night only to be told that our flight home had been cancelled. Lan Chile were actually pretty good about it and organised for us to stay at...

The Good Plus Ocean Road

I actually think the Great Ocean Road was pretty fantastic, but jokingly give it a Good plus nonetheless. Amazing, amazing vistas to be experienced with slight nausea if not driving the car. It was a pretty amazing way to end the first Australian experience. Just check it out . . .

On the road again

Off early for our belated Sunday lunch on Monday. We travelled to Gympie which was a pretty town and organised the yearly Gympie Country Music Muster which quite ironically is held in Amamoor State Forest. It is a very hilly town and it put me in mind of Dunedin in NZ. We were able to check...

Time Down Under

About 6 more hours to go in Australia before Carl, Joc, and I head off to Bali, Indonesia, and Dave, Maddy, and Jennie make their way to Koh Samui. It's been a fantastic week plus exploring Melbourne and spending a solid 6 days in the Grampians National Park and Mt. Arapiles doing some rock...

Traffic Jam

We didnt make it to Noosa, on the M1 we encountered a horrendous traffic jam due to an accident and we spent ours waiting in the traffic. First available opportunity we headed off and thought we were being clever by taking a back way. Alas, this was the diversion by the road authorities and it...

Lets stay another night

We loved it so much that we stayed a second night, still having problems dragging Caitlin from the other family. They are planning to travel for the husband's long service leave so we may even see them again as we have exchanged details. It rained most of the day but it didnt matter because it...
