Middle Lagoon- Day 51, 29/05/2016

Bryce brought his boat with him to Middle Lagoon and we spent the day fishing and cruising around, we all had a great time out on the water. Bryce did a great job in unfamiliar waters and put us all onto some fish. Unfortunately Lily was the only one to land a fish that was size and of a variety worth keeping, her Spanish Flag went into the esky and was cooked up later that night as our entree.  After spending the day with Bryce and Alex had to return home as they both had to work tomorrow which was a real pity, we have had an awesome time with them over the last few weeks and it was sad to say our good byes as it would be quite a while before we see them again.

Cape York - Day 28, Calliope River to Glass House Mountains 13/07/2018

Last night was another cold night and climbing out of the swag was very hard, when we did emerge we were treated to a beautiful thick fog which burned off slowly as the sun rose. We weren’t in too much of a hurry today so we milled around camp waiting for the heavy dew on the roof top tent to dry off. Eventually we hit the road and made our way south on the Bruce Highway. Lunch stop fro today was Tiaro and from here it was a couple of hours drive and we were home. This trip was fantastic and we are so glad we had this opportunity. We love heading out west into the deserts and were surprised at how much we enjoyed this trip. The 4wd tracks through the Creb, OTT and Frenchman's tracks were brilliant and our little Triton emerged relatively unscathed with some new pin stripes, rattles, bucket fulls of dust and some paint off the side steps and bash plates. Nothing a good clean/polish and touch up won't fix. I'm so glad we took our time and prepared properly, we saw heaps o

Another transit today, on previous trips we had camped at the free camp on the Calliope River so this was our destination for the day. Anna was craving another proper coffee and wanted to show the girls where her family used to stay in Mackay, so we took a detour off the highway and had a coffee and morning tea at the Mackay Marina. The park Anna used to play in as a kid was still there... We stopped in at Claireview for lunch and Anna and I think we could retire here one day, a very beautiful little spot. We started to hit the road works today but otherwise we made good time and had an uneventful drive south. Late in the arvo we pulled off the highway into Calliope River, this place is very popular with camping on both sides of the river. The area is huge and we managed to find a nice pot looking down over the river. Distance travelled = 541km
