September 4 Rockhampton

Another wet day, except that it didn’t clear up for long before it came down again. Not to worry, we had a low activity lay-day.

We decided to stay one more night so we’ll now leave here for Bundaberg early on Sunday. One of the things we want to do is head out to Yeppoon and do a round trip along the coast. The forecast is for good weather on Saturday. Ian McNamara is also putting on a concert here on Saturday night and we’d like to attend that as well. Maccas, “Australia All Over” program on ABC radio on Sunday mornings is an institution and one we always try to listen to. Two good reasons for hanging around a bit longer.

We went to the theatre to book two seats for the concert and ran into the man himself. Talk about a coincidence. We were able to have a chat with him for a few minutes.

Another shopping expedition after lunch and we found a couple of things to send to Jack. His favourite lollies are soft grubs and ice-creams and we left a supply behind when we came away but that’s disappeared. Hopefully he’ll like the substitutes we found.

Tomorrow’s a big day for Renee and Graeme so our thoughts will be with them. Hopefully everything will go well.

The 2nd day we decided to go for a walk in the afternoon and ended up clambering through the bush in the middle of the island in our shorts and flip flops in search of a place called Long Beach.
