Of course we had a great time visiting our family while we were camped at Maroochy beach caravan park. We had a couple of special times when parents went out to the cinema and we had a chance to look after the two grandchildren, a sort of bonding, if you like. We are not too sure when we will be back and kids change very quickly if they're not living under the same roof as you. we did find that the humidity was hard to take. don't get me wrong, we can take the heat alright, i used to work in 35-40c dressed in period costume and I didn't think anything of it. The difference here is it was a dry heat and this heat carried about 72%moisture..Umm, no thanks.
We have moved South now and having a look at several areas on our way to Glen Innes where we currently are, still like the availability of the coast and perhaps when we get a little further South, may escape the humidity. We both loved Ballina and the area, Yamba and Iluka are both very attractive as well. Sandflys are another problem for me and the mangroves around Ballina may harbour hordes of them. Don't know, we will see...A couple of quiet days in Glen Innes and off to Armidale and Nundall tomorrow. We thought we may go back to highway one through the Hunter valley.......
I would like to title this photo from a fairly well known country song..Some days are diamonds, some days are stones....
