Janet and John on a Roadtrip

Today was a transit day really but because Janet and I are so excited about the start of our road trip through Central Queensland I thought I'd do a quick update.

The first leg was from Rockhampton to Airlie Beach which is about a 5 hour drive.

We broke up the trip by visiting Mackay for lunch overlooking the harbour.

Mackay harbour was lovely and most notable for the mutant oysters they served us for lunch!!

We arrived in Airlie beach just in time to catch the sunset. Our bargain cabin at Magnums Backpackers  has turned to to be lovely overlooking a creek teaming with wildlife as well as mosquitoes (reaches for the DEET)

I'm enjoying a brief return to the backpacker scene that took up much of my year travelling so cheers!
