Maroochydore

Tuesday 24 May.
A pleasant surprise today when the Awning people came to quote for construction of our new awning. After looking at others the same people constructed over the past two years, each at a cost of $1500.00, and considering ours is larger and involves a roof as well I was expecting something between $2000-$2500.

Chapter 32.
Winter on the Sunshine Coast.

We are now on the Sunshine Coast for the winter spell. We are planning on being here until the middle of September or so and then decide which way we will go back down south, apart for a visit to Brisbane while Matt and family visit.
I […]

We enjoyed out time at Bargara tremendously, but it was time to move on and we decided that we would go straight on to Maroochydore instead of via Rainbow Beach. This was nothing unusual for us as we do generally change our mind and have a long trip to somewhere we […]

We are now at Bundaberg having arrived yesterday. We have chosen a park at Bargara about 14k east of Bundaberg on the coast. This seems a very nice park and we are already talking about staying here for a second week instead of going to Rainbow beach or Noosa, but time […]

Tuesday 2nd May 2005, (Gladstone).
Here it is a week after getting this machine out to put down a few words, and where has the time gone. We haven’t appeared to do much while here, but we haven’t had any spare time as such. We did have one day’s sightseeing to check out Lake Awoonga about […]
