Dingo to Rockhampton

No photos today.

We were up at a reasonable hour and said farewell to Margy as she was leaving early for Toowoomba.

So it was a leisurely early morning. It was an easy pack up and no rush. Phil went out with his tractor to move some soil in the melon hole and was away for a little while.

On Phils return, we finished packing up and then joined Phil for morning tea in the sun.

It was then time to move on , so we said farewell to Phil and then set off.

We stopped for lunch at the rest area in Westwood. A fellow traveler came over to inspect how I have my bike mounted as he was not happy with the way his was mounted on his caravan.

A short time after lunch we rejoined the Bruce Highway and entered Rockhampton. My homing instinct guided me to a coffee shop I enjoyed last year, Sexie Coffee. The coffee is really nice there. The right temperature and presentation. I guess we will visit it again before we leave, at least once more!

Then we drove the short distance to Bruce and Kaye's home on The Range in Rockhampton. It is a beautiful home with a wonderful view of Mount Arthur.  We chatted for a while before I manipulated the Karavan up a slope to park it in their garden. A fair bit of clutch slippage but eventually safely in place and set up. Then it was almost time for dinner and a lovely catch up time.
