Wow replace the roof to fix cable, seems pretty extreme. Hopefully that fixes it once and for all.

Made it to Broadwater just before 5.. un hitched and went to the market. Got it in the 2nd attempt which is good for us ;)
Put up the annex tomorrow the extra hour helped us get here. Also left 6am ;) Luke woke us for toilet run 3am
Interesting in Sep it took 3 nights and this time 1.. A lot more confidant towing now.
We went through Cunninghams Gap again although headed through Beaudesert instead of freeway.. As did not want to head down past Brissy on that freeway around 4.
Interesting route bends and few places to overtake had a few people waiting on us ;)

Coming through Beaudesert and Canungra, you would have passed within a couple of hundred metres of our place.
It is a fairly narrow and windy road with few overtaking places but it's the way we usually go. Enjoy your stay up here Dave.

If I knew we might of pulled over @chartrock coming that way was a last minute choice.. Originally going Warwick to Gatton then down highway... Thought I hit the traffic and that road down south is crap when we had no caravan..

One kid not well today so had quiet day put up the annex it's not too long for this site ;) did food shopping got a new step at BCF as hate the one we have.. Stopped big green shed to get a rubber Matt to put over cable and water.
There is a TV antenna on ensuite which is lucky for us ;)
Park quiet kids on jumping pillow almost by themselves and the pool was empty when I just walked past.... Mid next week it will be chaos

So we are only a couple of days before we head back again. Gone quick
Been to movieworld, SeaWorld and wet n wild.. Heading back to movieworld again tomorrow our last day. With Sarah's friends and kids

Had a few quiet park days...
Two eldest had stomach bugs one used a bucket the other just his bed and went back to sleep.. Not a fun find....
I had one too many cokes I assume got a bad hole in tooth.. Kept me up a few nights went to dentist Saturday and today again for first part of root canal... Ouch

So yes had a few nothing days like today..
Did the Easter concert down Broadwater the kids liked
They had the Bunny come to the park and activities for the kids.. There is a kids disco tonight.

Boys done a lot of swimming, jumping pillow and scootering.. Maybe we should go to a park 5ks away and save on petrol he he

Heading home Thursday might go slow and stop some where on the way as have 4 days to get home... No idea yet which way or where we stop

Sounds like the kids have really worked their theme parks passes. Could catch up at Movieworld tomorrow but would have a hell of a time finding you there. :D
