Add Water… We’ve been away from Disney cattle station and the Gore earthmovers for the last 6 weeks. It was dinner dates, coffee breaks and the usual stuff over 50’s need to do such as new glasses, physio, doctors and skin cancer removal. Visiting new restaurants and enjoying walks along the water all made this […]
There’s so much to do around Cairns. It takes two blog posts to tell you about what we did, though, we were only there for five days.
Changing Chris’s mind I love Cairns, always have. Chris hated it. He went there once on business in the 1980s, in the middle of summer, with no air-conditioning and didn’t see anything other than the city.

We got our caravan back…yah! If you weren’t aware, we had some issues with our beloved Aussie Wide Caravan. A storm had caused water damage to the front and side panel of the van and needed to be replaced.

The Gore Earthmoving workers worked until 10 am after which they come back to camp, showered, packed and headed off to Clermont for a “shift wrap up” counter meal at one of the pubs. A colleague of Mick […]

Lacey had been getting Braxton Hicks contractions for the last month but when Luke finally decided to come he wasn’t mucking around. David, who had been waiting patiently for his birth and […]
