The Sunshine Coast We left Brisbane on 15 July, driving up past the Glass House mountains, then winding slowly up through the ranges to Montville, before the descent to Noosa. Once again, we challenge the notion that Australia is flat and boring! High up on the ridge of the Great Dividing Range, you can see for miles over the ranges and out to the coast. At Noosa we were unable... Read Full Entry

Blu guarding the food from the butcher birds!
at Central Station campground
Lake Birrabeen
another see-through lake!
Wanggoolba Creek
amazing! Hard to believe the water in the creek is 100% clear - the brown is the sandy bottom, not the colour of the water!
where is that damn bypass road?
found it - our exit onto safe ground en route to the Hook Point barge landing

Hi Kath and Blue
Hi guys! Finally got to writing a few lines. You sound like you are having a great time. I am a bit worried about you going into the outback with very little contact with the outside world..take care and keep safe!! We are all well. Paul is in the USA playing soccer for 2 weeks with an invitation team , lucky devil. Only left on Sat 23.8.08 but have played 2 games and won 2 games so far. Off to look at USA colleges tomorrow and they have a Under 19's tournament all weekend this week in Orange County. One of their games is against the Under 18's Galaxy team - yes you are right David Beckhams club! Lucky devils..hoepfully the man himself might come along to watch, wouldn't that be a bonus. We are off on the 14th Sept on our OE to London, Spain and Portugal. Having a 3 days stop in Dubai on our way up and a 2 day in Brunei on our way back. Hope it wil all go well. Healthwise still a little dodgy just with pain etc from arthritis but will take plenty of medication with me to combat that hopefully. Have had a bone scan done 2 weeks ago and they have found I have a suspected fracture in my lower back (from my fall in April) so am waiting to see what the back specialist is going to do with that, possibly a back brace or something. I guess it was nice to catch up with some visitors from home. Hope your kids are both keeping well. Keep travelling safe and well. Hope to hear from you again soon.. Love Alison and Andy xx

Hi Guys- News!
Hi Guys - loving the updates! Guess what - we are moving to the Sunshine Coast! We will put our house on the market in the next few weeks and hopefully be there around Christmas. Mum is also selling up and coming with us. Will let you know our progress. We are looking at maybe Caloundra/ Maroochydore, unlikely we will go as far north as Noosa. Enjoy your travels! Ginny xxxx

What's the mountain in Glasshouse?
Great photos! The name of that mountain is Coonowrin, or Crook Neck.

Great photos
Hi Brian and Kate, We are enjoying reading all about your adventures and love the great photos. You sure are going to some beautiful places. You are proving that Aussie is more than dry sand and straight roads. The Sunshine coast is very beautiful. Continue to enjoy the warm weather. It is bloody cold here. We have had our share of rain for the winter. Looking forward to the next episode. Cheers Helen and Chris
