Freeloadin'

Well it has been a week of civilisation for us! We spent the night in Byron Bay parked on Marie's front lawn, where Lulu sustained buffeting winds that shook us so hard we woke up. We had a lovely night catching up and listening to the rain and a relaxing morning on the deck having the most scrumptious breakie with Cocoa the rainbow lorrie. From Byron we headed up the coast the scenic way to spend the night with Maree at Burliegh. Another great night and probably the last time I'll get to see my Mummy in a while - she has headed off to Boston now for a conference then back to Tassie. Off to "The Well" to spend some time with Brons' Pa. We had a few good nights knocking back a couple of cans and catching up. We even managed to bag a couple of mud crabs that were very tasty indeed. A morning fishing the falling tide on the flats was unsuccessful but I think Pete enjoyed the opportunity to have a flick with a fly rod. We are at Tegan and Benny's place now and about to hit the road. It's been great to catch up with our sisters, Erin came down on Saturday night with Tegan after work so we could have some time together. A few swims at the pool and beach and a few beers and bacardis later, the weekend flew by and everyone is now back at work. We are heading out now going towards Kingaroy for some impoundment fishing at Boondooma Dam and Atkinson Dam north west of Brissy, hopefully we can catch some red claw.

Big thankyous all round to those that have been putting us up and putting up with us over the last week or so.
