After a quick stop at the local bakery for some travelling sustenance we got away by 8:10, on our way south and into the poor weather.  Rain is forecast for the next few days and maybe beyond. Continue reading →

We woke late this morning to the sad news that we lost the Men’s Basketball Bronze Medal play-off at the Olympics overnight.  Guess we have another 4 years to get that little bit better.

Our day started with hitting the streets of Byron at around 10:30, walking around the shopping strips and down to the beach. Continue reading →

Happy birthday Tom, we know Vonnie would have spoilt you just right. 🙂

We woke this morning with high anticipation of the Australian Men’s Basketball teams semi-final against Serbia, Australia went in as favourites, well in our minds anyway. Continue reading →

This morning we explored the Byron Lighthouse area. We parked the car down near the Pass Café, paid for 2 ½ hrs parking and headed off along a coastal walk towards the lighthouse. It is such a beautiful walk. Continue reading →

Thankfully we are on the south side of Brisbane and heading south. We left the CP at about 8:10am and the traffic heading into Brisbane was bumper to bumper, and even worse at all the exits. We had a very smooth run south.

We were up at it early this morning. Even when you’re away domestic chores have to be done and today was washing day. We got three loads on early and had them on the line by 8am, dry and off and put away by 11am. You have to love warm weather. 🙂 Continue reading →

We started the day with something REALLY unusual for us, we used public transport!! Yes we eventually worked out where to get a bus into town and like big grown up people, we even got on and off at the right stops. But one thing, the driver really didn’t have to ask me if I had a Seniors Card!!! Are these people trying to tell me something. Continue reading →

We couldn’t check in at our CP in Brisbane until 2pm and the traffic heading south from Maroochydore on a workday morning isn’t pretty, so had to take our time this morning, lol. An easy start to the day again, I don’t know how we do it! Continue reading →
