Our little tour of Qld

We love travelling whether it is in Australia or overseas.  We have been very fortunate to have visited most cities in Australia. We have also traveled to many countries and there are still many places to go to on my/our Bucket List.....Jens and I often talked about a slower,  slightly off the beaten track trip around Central Queensland......but as Jens work involves a lot of driving we just talked about it.....and it was on our Going To Do List.....who wants to drive all week and then go on a driving holiday.......

But.....when Jens cousin and her husband, son and her cousin from Germany decided come over for a holiday....a driving holiday was organized to show them our beautiful State.......so after many weeks of planning the trip through Central Queensland was organized......There were 6 adults and a 3 yr old on this tour as Hanno was to come along also.....Jens was to drive one car and Hanno was taking his car.....so we were all ready to go and at the last minute Hanno was advised by his Doctor not to go.......so this meant that I had to take my car........just as well I had the car serviced a couple of weeks ago......

We were up bright and early on Friday ready to go......I was a little anxious about driving so far.....usually I'm the passenger.....so this time I'm driving and Sasha is the passenger.....which is interesting as I know every little German and Sascha knows very little English.....

Anyway this is the map of our tour.....



and check out the distance we drove in 12 days



It was a great trip....the visitors loved it and are talking about coming back again in a couple of years......








There were so many beautiful places to visit and we did as much as we could in such a very short time.....I will post more photos tomorrow......until then....Cathy

  1. Sometimes we need visitors to endorse what we know - we have a beautiful State/Country! Look forward to more photos.
