Grey Nomads in our poptop caravan, based at Caloundra but travelling, doing some house sits which still allows us to travel and see the country without always taking the van.

Moyse Family arrive on Bribie 28th May 2012
Monday 28th May arrived it was a beautiful day and we had planned to meet Terry & Patricia at 1000am at the paddock where they have the old Zephyr van stored for 9mths of the year when they head back to NZ.Brian takes some tools and the pump for the tryes as they are always a bit flat after sitting for a while in the paddock, I take the lunch and this year it was a Bacon & Egg pie and flasks of hot water for a cuppa. While the lads were doing the tyres, Patricia and I set to - to refold the tarp that had been covering said Z van for the last 9mths to keep some of the QLD weather off her. Once the tyres are up the old lady comes out of the paddock and soon enough we are heading in convoy down the road the approx 3kms to the caravan park at Worrium. Once at the van park the Moyse clan check in and we move the old lady Z onto the site where she will be parked up for the next 3mths. Once she is in the correct spot we set to in relays to unload her as all the belongings are loaded inside when T & P head back to Christchurch. We unload all that we require to make room and get the annexe set up first - with this done it is lunch time done picnic style and the weather was just fantastic, after lunch the lads decide the TV has to be organised and set to working order - this did not go to plan, first the antenna did not work properly and they could not get the huge quantity of channels they wanted - eventually they managed to get something all be it not what Terry wanted but it was his turn to play with it while we set to head back northward to home. It was a nice day warm and sunny and in a weeks time we will head down with our little Coromal for the weekend - more about that next time.
Enjoy a read and the photos.
