Decisions, decisions! Will we stay - will we go!?!

Well, we stayed in the Maroochy River Cabin Village and Caravan Park simply because accommodation is so hard to get in this neck of the woods, and we have 3 friends to see here so have no choice other than to stay put. We forgot to the mention in our last blog that the park turned out to be next to the Sunshine Highway so, overnight, we had not only traffic noise to contend with but the flood lights from the expressway over the caravan park can be seen from the International Space Station!

The only thing to do this morning was to head out and about for the day and we certainly weren't disappointed with the scenery. Maroochydore and Mooloolaba town centres are lovely, as was Bribie Island, Caboolture and Caloundra. All tourist-oriented of course, and lots of high-rise but still beautiful beaches, lots of trendy shops and cafes, good sushi and great weather.

Still more exploring to do over the next couple of days, and on Saturday morning we're off to the Eumundi Markets before heading out of here on Sunday morning toward the Gold Coast to see our 'surrogate' grandson S-J and his mum and dad. (It won't be long now guys!)
