Well here we are at our son's place in Trinity park a suburb of Cairns. We left Nirvana and three days later we arrived.
At the time of writing this original blog entry, we had intentions of possibly staying here (Cairns) for the winter, hopefully find some work, and then at the end of the seasons head back south, then head to SA for the summer.
Well it is amazing what a day makes.
So on Saturday 2nd April we are returning to SE Queensland to take over a boutique cabins and caravan park in the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. We have been negotiating this for a little while, however a take over date was a little down the track....so we decided it was all a little to hard, so we headed to Cairns to see the kids.
Well that date has now been brought forward to ASAP for the CP....so what does that mean?????........back we go to where we came from. We would not return if this contract wasn't long term. We will do our usual thing and continue to make it work until such times the property is sold. Could take a month or a year............that's the way it goes.
So as above we again hook up the Retro Liner on Saturday 2nd April and basically back track. Cairns to the Sunshine Coast. Bloody expensive exercise I don't mind telling ya, but however we have seen the kids and grandess.
We need to get back to work, I'm getting fatter, and the bride is whinging she's bored.......well I am going to fix that lovey.
It is going to take us at least a week to get back. At the time of writing this there has been heavy rain the area from Bowen to Mackay and the road is cut just south of Proserpine. However if no further rain falls in the area between now and say Sunday, the road should be clear........time will tell.
I will post again as soon as something happens, with some photies hopefully.
Cheers and beers

Hey!!! Just as you are coming to the Sunny coast we are leaving!
Heading off from Traveston on the morning of 1st April and up to Inskip Point for a few days. After that we are not sure which direction we will go. I want to head south while the co-pilot wants to go north. Maybe on your way south let us know and we can catch up for a cuppa.
Cheers

Hi Frank. Give us a ring or email and give us your number. We may be able to catch up as you say.
If you want to go north, you may drown around your stamping ground, and if ya get to Cairns the heat and the Mozzies will kill ya.
But that will change as the winter comes on, but I wouldn't head north till after Easter.
Cheers & beers
