Homeward Bound

After our fill of Bundy Rum and ginger beer, we based ourselves in Hervey Bay for a couple of nights and went on a 4WD tour of FraserIsland. The tour took us to some Fraser Island’s scenic highlights and for the mandatory drive along the beach highway. We managed not to get eaten by dingos but we did see a few.

Next it was a stop over with Linda and Will at Maroochydore. Had an evening of laughs and catching up on what has happened since we last saw them.

We then crossed the border into NSW last Tuesday and turned the clock back to 70s for a few days in Byron Bay.

We must look like aging hippies because one local shop keeper was sure we must have come from the Northern Rivers. We took an excursion across to Nimbin where Adrian had to buy some hemp. (It was a hat that was woven from the plant.)

While at Coffs Harbour for a couple of days the local sea life took a liking to us.

As we moved further down the North Coast we got the feeling that spring was in the air and felt the draw of home.

We only gave poor Gemma 2 days notice of our home coming and she really did need a week to clean up. Tim was around tonight and he is getting excited about his imminent trip to Hong Kong, Macau and China. We are a bit jealous, maybe its time for us to start planning a holiday!
