Toolakea (Townsville)


Last friday we arrived at the east coast and set up camp in Toolakea, 20 km north of Townsville, right at the beach. We have a very bad internet connection here, so updating this blog and sending email is limited to the lucky moment that we do have a connection (like now). Our plan is to stay here till next friday and then make our way south along the coast towards Mount Perry.

Today/tomorrow we will visit Pam's Aunt and cousin who live nearby.

more next weekend !!

Julia Creek

Yes we did leave as planned. Via Mataranka, Banka Banka station, the Three Ways, Bakly Homestead, Mount Isa we travelled to Julia Creek where we are now. Two more stops (in Hughenden and Chartes Towers) and we will be in Townsville. It is HOT inland. the temperature has not been under 35 during the day. Looking forward to the cooler coast.
Once there, we will update this blog a bit more often.
Just now for you to know: we are enjoying !!!
