The park promotes feeding the wallabies on the beach at dawn, so Darryl braved the cool conditions but was disappointed to be restricted in how close you could get - plus no flashes were to be used so his photos are nothing like the brochures. To boot there were only 2 kangaroos on the beach - however, in the camp you can almost pat them as they laze on the lawns and walkways. So the rest of us didn’t bother! Meanwhile, Dennis continued to attract birds - this time a beautiful kookaburra!
Now we are at Hydeaway Bay - on the Gloucester Peninsula. It’s a lovely quiet park, popular for fisher people and not far to the beach. It has surprised us how populated these areas are - Seaforth was a big surprise with houses enjoying absolute beach frontage. It was so lovely, Darryl thought he could easily live there! The houses around here are very luxurious with stunning views. We enjoyed morning tea at the nearby resort - the view was lovely.
We are quite excited about our next stay in Airlie Beach, as we’ve booked a Whitsunday day cruise. We are starting to realise that we are in a popular tourist area and the exodus from south has begun. No longer can we pop into a park without booking. So we’ll have to be a bit more organised and plan our next moves. We hope the long weekend was enjoyed by everyone and hope the cold snap has abated a little. Till the next blog, love from us ❌❌
