119 - Eumundi

Hey Charger

Tooosday 27th of June, we took the chance to have some R and R, be it only about 6 hours, so it was time for some sightseeing.

We left the top of the mountain and went down the back road to Kennilworth. A fantastic Queensland road (not) greeted us about 10 minutes from the CP. Feeeeeeerk has any body watched that thing on TV about the Worlds Dangerous Roads....how come this road hasn't been included!!!!!!!!! This is worse!!!!

Anyway got to Kenilworth, and nothing there.....however now "been there dome that".  From there set the new U beaut Tom Tom GPS for Eumundi. Check it out in the Val, also with the Blue Tooth thingy for the "bat phone". Mate am I a techno nerd.

Sacrilege....21st century technology in a 20th Century motor car.
Hey check out the cool dude behind the wheel!!!!!

We wandered into Eumundi, parked the Val and had a sticky around. Now Eumundi is the go for the u beaut markets, every Wednesday and Saturday. Of course we were a day early, but no matter, markets bore the crapp out of me. The only thing I like about markets is checking out all the disco dollies, the trendy old birds, and my speciality, is the the old hippy sheilas from the 70's, who burnt their bras, and haven't bought a new one since ( he he!!!) Hey, gotta have an optic nerve .....that's my job...I'm a boy.

So we wandered around, neat little town and here are some photies


One of the alternate shops to relieve ya of your money

You have to take a photo of a pub

Guess who is going shopping

These tin signs were out in the 70's. Don't remember cause I wasn't around then

Good loock'n cars and check out the Gerryatric Gypsie still living in the 70's

No you can't have that for the RetroLiner....it's to heavy

Thanks for the beer mate!!!!!!

Yeah okay your turn.

Stay tooned for more on the Sunshine Coast

How didja manage 2 get sunshine in the sunshine state on the sunshine coast? Mostly I got rain, especially when I went 2 Eumundi. Got a photo of Joes Waterhole 2 - in the rain. I know the road your talking about. I did it in reverse - going uphill when we bought our motorhome 2 years ago.
cheers
