On road antics.... hmmmm hum hum - we did scruff it until last night at a roadside stop over (eeek to the toliets and huge mossy bites on our bums!) and feeling like true backpackers nowthis morning as we sit eating breakfast at a Youth Hostel camp site in Hervey Bay! ;) Actually liking the youth hostel (pics to follow!), you share a kitchen, good showers, pool and tennis tables, swimming pool, internet and even a bar and free brekkie - brill value at 4.50 British dollar!

Yesterday day we went to Noosa Heads (very touristy, to the point where we didn't stay too long) and then went on to our first beach :) Rainbow beach in Colloola National Park (which was lovely) then the Aussie trekking started with us doing a Jungle trial through to Lake Poona - my heart pounded as I scanned for snakes and didn't look up for a while as Super P had to lead the way!) On our trek we didn't meet any snakes thank goodness but did meet "Henry" the Goana (definate pictures to follow), then another utter nuisance, a rarther persistent Brush Turkey who's name we'll keep off the blog..... Little b***** wouldn't part our sides !

Anyway the road beckons to Rockhampton and a big drive so catch you all soon. Hopefuly later from another of our new found favourite stops ! :-)

Onwards to Rockhampton, only 5 hours drive which in the 2.4 Litre Mitsubishi Mile Muncher will be no problem (specially if Caroline takes the helm)
