It was dad's 88th birthday so I fought with the M1 traffic and drove up to Caloundra to see mum and him for his birthday. Had some quite nice fish and chips for lunch and when he went for his afternoon nap I headed off back to the highway. Got in the wrong lane and had to turn north instead of south, 😊 so I just continued on and headed up to Cooroy and then Tewantin and finally across the Noosa river on the car ferry. Stopped at the third cutting and dropped the tyre pressures down to 18 psi. Engaged 4WD this time and easily drove out through the rather soft sand. Just down the beach I saw a familiar looking Jayco pop top caravan, so I pulled up and had a chat to my brother and his wife. He can't/won't confirm getting bogged in the soft sand nor would he confirm getting towed out by a Hummer, unfortunately there was no photographic evidence of any of these alleged proceedings. 😊 I followed him down the beach which was nice and firm as it was close to low tide. At the north end of Zone 2 we found their friends and pulled in and setup camp for a couple of days.
It was a full moon so I took some photos after heating up some chicken curry for dinner.
We then had a friendly game of cards and chatted for awhile before heading off to bed with the sound of the surf lulling me to sleep.
