(written by Dave) Sorry about yesterday’s post being late. We had no mobile signal at Kin Kin – we posted at our lunch stop today after writing up our notes up last night. Great night at the oval, all quiet by 9PM and pretty much no noise from the pub – no repeat of the … Continue reading Through the Noosa Hinterlands – Kin Kin to Tin Can Bay (79K)

Back on the road – Noosa to Kin Kin (55K)
(written by Nancy) We packed up most of our things last night in our room at the hostel so this morning it was a fairly easy departure after we ate the remaining food we had for breakfast. I think we each had four pieces of toast – had to use up the remaining bread as … Continue reading Back on the road – Noosa to Kin Kin (55K)
Mostly photos for the rest day in Noosa
(written by Dave) Mostly just photos for today…. Keeping with tradition, we had a big brekkie this morning – eggs on toast with homemade salsa and bacon. We then walked through Noosa Heads National Park, spotting a koala and large green sea turtles. Later in the hostel, one of the other guests reported that “someone” … Continue reading Mostly photos for the rest day in Noosa
Life on the Road
(written by Nancy) We have now been on the road for just about a month – seems an appropriate time for an update on how we are adjusting to life on the road. We are slowly getting into a rhythm on the road. Sleeping in the tent is still a bit of a struggle for … Continue reading Life on the Road
Hidden hills on the backroads –Landsborough toNoosa (67k)
(written by Nancy) Finally, a good night’s sleep – very quiet, only the occasional moo from the neighboring cow to lull us to sleep. We woke up to a pretty wet tent as a result of the condensation but no rain – blue sky and sunshine. The camp kitchen had a toaster so Dave finally … Continue reading Hidden hills on the backroads –Landsborough toNoosa (67k)
Into the ranges – Kilcoy to Landsborough (56k)
(written by Nancy) Well, I think last night would win the award for the worst camping night so far… The spot we had wasn’t bad and a couple more caravans pulled in so we were not alone. Unfortunately the folks at a house across the street from the park decided to have a very loud … Continue reading Into the ranges – Kilcoy to Landsborough (56k)
Around the dams – Esk to Kilcoy (56k)
(written by Nancy) Last night in the camp kitchen there were probably over 30 older folks all sitting around the TV watching the Royal Wedding. There were red white and blue streamers, Australian flags, and scones and cream aplenty! Most of the old gals sang all the songs (hymns, I guess really) along with the … Continue reading Around the dams – Esk to Kilcoy (56k)
Rest day in Esk
(written by Dave) Rest days are great - we get to sleep in and have a big brekkie. Seems like there are lots of chores to do as well. We are thinking of having a two day rest day next time - normal people may call this a weekend! A number of folks have asked … Continue reading Rest day in Esk
Through the floodlands – Toowoomba to Esk (83k)
(written by Nancy) We both slept great at Hugh & Jude’s house – quiet and comfy. We had breakfast and more stimulating conversation with Hugh and then he kindly escorted us from their house to the main road we were to take for the first 20k or so. The road, the Warrego Hwy, was pretty … Continue reading Through the floodlands – Toowoomba to Esk (83k)
A day of two halves –Warwick to Toowoomba (96k)
(written by Dave) Posted a day late…. We had long day yesterday and stayed with some great hosts at a WarmShowers stop. This meant no blogging last night. Here’s a quick recap of the day. We knew we would have a long day so we were on the road by 7:40, the earliest start of … Continue reading A day of two halves –Warwick to Toowoomba (96k)
