ARRIVED DALBY

Dear All,

Here we are in Dalby. Uneventful trip from Kirra Caravan Park to here. It was an absolutely beautiful day at Coolangatta and we were a bit sad to have to leave, but now we're on the road with new adventures ahead.

The trip over the Great Divide was a bit of a drag on the car but once we were over at Toowoomba, the scenery of the Darling Downs opened up to beautiful green paddocks ... quite a bit different to the last time we were here when it was nothing but brown grass and so very dry.

We have bought a new video camera but you need a university degree to operate it! (I hope I can master it before the trip is over!!)

We have an ensuite site here at the Dalby Tourist Park which is full tonight, mainly Victorians and Sth Australians.

We've had our first drama - while putting out the awning, one of the arms snapped and, after many phone calls, found that we can't have it fixed until Mt Isa. We may, therefore, need to change our trip to be in Mt Isa a little earlier than planned. It's not a major drama but a set-back just the same.

We will be having dinner out tonight - probably at the Club or pub. It has been so very cold but we have the airconditioning to keep us warm at night (and a couple of reds before bed!!)

Love to all and don't forget to email us from time to time.

PS. Don't pay any attention to the date on our blog. This is added automatically and is incorrect but I don't know how to change it!! Any help would be gratefully received!!
