Just a quick update on where we are at…

After a great week with Steve and Felicity in the Sunshine Coast, we spent an evening in Brisbane with Ken and Leanne where we stayed in the backyard of their friends home. We enjoyed dinner with them and a walk on the floating platform down by the river.

From there we headed down to Murwillumbah to stay with Jason and Willow, and we have been here for the last few days enjoying friends, a beautiful location and some great surf at Cabarita and Kingscliff.

Today we are packing up again and heading back up to the Gold Coast where we will be staying in a ritzy high rise apartment – a kind of mid trip breather from the claustrophobia of the camper and a chance to chill out a little less literally.

So far we have been fortunate to encounter no more than 3 rainy days in 14 weeks and nothing significant enough to cause us difficulty. The next few weeks will see us spend one week in the Gold Coast, followed by a trip down the NSW coast before we head indoors again to stay with Danelle’s sister in Muswellbrook for another week or so.

The date we get to Muswellbrook is entirely dependent on the weather on the way down! If it rains we will be there in a day or two – if the sun keeps shining then we will be enjoying the journey down the coast and the many good surf breaks to be enjoyed. Once we leave there it will be getting close to spring and hopefully the worst of the winter weather will be over…

I imagine sooner or later we will get stuck in the camper in the midst of a storm, but I can’t imagine it being any fun…
