Packed up the night before and left Agnes Water at 6:30am, for our first stop at Childers again as it such a lovely old town. Breakfast at the same cafe beside the post office and then a quick look around the town. Peter did the museum tour of the back packers that burnt down several years ago, while I did a bit of shopping and called into the old pharmacy museum.
Arrived at Mooloolaba around 2pm at the caravan park on the beach near the life saving club. Set up and went down the beach and look at a few shops on the strip, bumped into Geoff and Sue Smith Again! We walked over to a bar called Dock and met up with Kevin Brown and his lovely partner Carla. Our biggest night as we ended in a trendy bar, Peter drinking smoked whiskey 🥃 cocktails, very cool music.

Up in Mooloolaba early as Peter had a swim, then a walk up the beach and coffee ☕️. Packed up the van and called into Kevin and Carla’s for breakfast, they where a tad worse for wear. Their home has just been renovated on the water in Mooloolaba and very nice. The view from Kevin and Carla’s.
After breakfast back on the road to Surfers Paradise, our worst traffic on the highway from Brisbane to Surfers on the whole trip. Arrived at Nobby Beach Caravan Park around 2pm. Not long after Glen and Sarah called over to see us. We had an early dinner at Miami Marketta full of food trucks and more cool 😎 music and vibes. Glen had to pick the other kids up by 7pm so an early night for us. Great new Gin bar at Marketta.

Very windy night on the Gold Coast, early night as it’s a school night for the kids, lovely to see them.
