Hi & welcome to the forum.

If you take pics of your travels you may want to drop into the 'Pick This Place' thread and have a go at the latest photo to be posted. If you pick where it is then it will be your turn to show us one of yours for us to figure out.

How far have you travelled so far & which way are you heading?

Cheers
Jon

Hi Sandy & Brian,

Like everyone else, welcome to the forum - just don't head north to Townsville for a while, it is bloomin' wet!!! And then some more!!

At home, just north of Brisbane, we have had nothing but rain since November, come up here end of January, and blow me down, more damn rain!! and it is still going - heading for home next Saturday, we are beginning to feel like a couple of webbed feet ducks!!

Pete & June

thanks for your thoughts

Hi Brian & Sandra,

By June you should be OK to come up north when most southerns head up this way - can highly recommend Coral Coast Top Tourist Caravan Park at Garbutt here in Townsville. Come winter a lot of the caravan parks particularly out west put on meet & greet sausage sizzles, camp fire dinners and entertainment etc, and they can't do enough for their visitors.

Pete & June
