Mackay-Bucasia, 19-22 May

While the caravan was at the garage for repair we drove to Sarina beach and had a look at Hay Point and Dalrymple Bay Coal Terminals. Those two terminals are the largest coal export facilities in the world. There is a viewing platform where the impressive handling and export activity can be viewed.

Next day we had a nice picnic and walk at the Finch Hatton gorge, where a Kookaburra stole a sandwich out of our neighbors hand and left him with a bleeding finger. Great bushwalking at Finch Hatton Gorge and Manfred took a quick dip in one of the water holes, cold..... Next stop was Broken river in the Eungella national park to try and spot some platypus. And lucky us saw a few of them pretty easily. We even spotted two water snakes, definitely not a swimming spot.

Our kiddies enjoyed the camping spot at Bucasia Beach where Annabelle fed the Lorikeets and the 2 had fun in the bath - sink.
