DAY 50

Day 50 Wednesday 6thJune

Left Noosa for the drive to Helensvale C/park. Right across the Motorway from Movie world.
Traffic is very busy, I can’t believe how much traffic on this motorway. Listening to the news, there are heaps of accidents. We came across a truck and trailer carrying water tanks, it had jack-knifed. Consequently it blocked the motorway and caused a back up of about 5 kilometres!!!
I don’t think these Queenslander’s can drive in the wet!!! They all still hurtle along at speed like the roads are dry!!!! Worst of all are the truckies, just don’t get in there way or else!

Arrived here at 1230 booked in looks like a nice place. Brenda’s new name for the Gold coast is “the Cold Coast”. We are staying in a park just across the Motorway from Movie World. Still raining but trying to get the best out of it. We were given a map of the local area, the map covers about 5k’s north and the same south we counted 26 MacDonald’s in that area and of course plenty of the other food groups too!!!

The good new is that Steve, Jo & g/kids have arrived . They are here for the Winter Sun rock & roll festival. Had a quick chat , so It’s out for dinner at the Hogs Breath Café, Cavil Mall.
Met the kids had lots of hugs from the G/kids didn’t realise how much we have missed them!!!!
They have been looking after our dog while we have been away, or should I say spoiling the dog. The dog now goes to the bed with Jordan, has a pink blanket put over him and the best part gets a story read to him!
Things will change when we get him back (if Jordan will give him back!!!!)
Organised ourselves for a day out tomorrow at Movie World, should be lots of fun, if it doesn’t rain!!!
