Back east we head to Toowoomba and nearby Grantham where floods caused havoc in 2011. The Lockyer Vally was pretty and we stopped for a snack in Forest Hill near Gatton. The lure of the surf beckons so Dad found the motorway and we zoomed past Ipswich to a caravan park near the Gold Coast where we book in for a week. Our earlier than expected visit here is to avoid schoolies week which sees an invasion in just a couple of weeks time!
