End of Day 10

-
Day 10 - Airlie Beach to a free camp at a gravel pit just north of Yaamba.

Although we only traveled just under 400km yesterday (Day 10), it was a really pleasant drive.  It was a day of vastly different landscapes.  From the vast cane fields up north, to the barren brown landscape where we ended up - it really shows the differences in vegetation in our country.

So, here are some pictures of how our day ended, with Al setting up a make-shift office in the gravel pit to do the inevitable emails and officework at the end of the day.






I'm absolutely loving this lifestyle :-)




Location: Yaamba QLD 4704, Australia

Day 8 of Western (Central) Queensland adventure

The end of Day 8 sees us at Airlie Beach, staying at the Big 4 caravan park to say the least!  The atmosphere here, and 'class' of campers is completely different from the earlier part of the week.  Where the first week was very much mud, dirt, country camping, this week will be more refined 'city' camping.  Both have their place, but I know which one I prefer. Anyway, some pics of the last couple of days....

Day 9 of our wonderful adventure saw Al off working for the day in Airlie Beach, while I spent the day around the caravan park, doing chores and catching up on work emails. So, here I am, at a luxury caravan resort, chilling out before we begin to head south again tomorrow.

Start of a new adventure

-
Yesterday we started a new adventure.  Not the "around-the-country" one, but a significant one nevertheless.  Al get the go-ahead to take the caravan on a service run through Western Queensland, and upon hearing this, nothing was going to stop me from tagging along. Preparations started for a Narrabri-Roma-Charleville-Emerald run.  Packing for this trip was unlike any other we had done.  Whilst experts on packing for weekends away camping, this was a business trip.  And whilst experts at packing for a business trip, this was a business trip in a caravan.  We needed 'bits' of our weekend camping kit, and 'bits' of our business kit.  Lists abound, anything we forgot we will do without. So, amidst torrential rain, we left home yesterday just after 8am for the long haul to Narrabri, NSW.  We decided to go through Cunningham's Gap instead of through Toowoomba so that it was an easier run. Towing three tonne of caravan through rain isn't fun, so the...
