It's Been Raining!


Not a lot to report over the last few days, we have just been enjoying our time here with our friends, we went for a drive one day to have a look at a caravan park and some waterfalls, it rained for all of the day, did over 400k’s over some very narrow and winding roads to have our picnic lunch huddled under a small shelter trying to keep warm and out of the rain. The rain got the better of us and we moved to a small cafĂ© for coffee and sweets.

The falls are called the Queen Mary Falls and are not far north east of Warwick, we followed the GPS and it took us up the Great Divide via the back roads, we returned to Brisbane via Cunningham’s Gap which was a bit longer but a lot easier drive.

Today, Monday 30th we have packed up and left Brisbane and travelled to the Jondaryan Woolshed, had a good  run up here, nice and sunny again after all the rain, even the climb up the “hill” to Toowoomba seemed easy today, a lot of trucks were slugging it out though.

All things mechanical are going ok with the car and van, the only failure has been the van door handle light cover disintegrated, new one only $7.50 so an easy fix.
