Canungra 11-17 Jan 2019

Friday: An early morning start to our trip, 4.55am! We had to drop Melissa and the girls to Brisbane airport by 10am. We had a good run and were early even thou we stopped at Caboolture for some sustenance.
Then it was on to Canungra sports ground to camp for 5 nights. Set up camp beside the creek.
 Went for a short but hilly ride to town and back.
Then spent the rest of the afternoon just lazing around in the creek.
Saturday morning Rachel, John and Seth took us to O'Reillys winery to see the Alpacas.

Seth stayed the night with us. So more swimming.
Later that night Yvonne and Gunther arrived.
Sunday was Rachels birthday so we had a bbq lunch and swam again.  Silly me didn't take many photos . We had a camp fire late in the afternoon.

Monday we decided to go up to O'Reillys plateau to see the Stinson replica plane and do the tree top walk.

Our view from the café where Gunther kindly shouted coffee and a wrap as we were the chauffeurs.
On the way back we stopped at the Canungra tramway tunnel.
More swimming and marshmallow toasting after dinner.
Tuesday was a busy day exploring.

For something novel we went swimming after exploring and did a tidy up as we're moving in the morning.
Rachel and Seth joined us for pizza in the park for dinner.
Wednesday we were on the road by 8.30 and headed for Toowoomba avoiding the hwy where possible. Stopped at Rosewood for coffee and to look around.
