3rd February
Well the day had arrived for us to leave Caloundra for the best part of 2015, the night before we packed away all the outdoor gear rolled the awning up as rain was forecast, thank goodness we did as it teamed through the night. We woke to a fine however overcast day. Checkout time was 1000am however we heard on the radio that the south bound lanes on the Bruce HWay were blocked due to a truck rollover and there were huge delays. Brian went to the office and asked for a late checkout, by 1100 we decided to head off as we had to drop the aircon unit off at the storage shed and once there we could see the traffic was moving and did not seem to be too backed up. With the aircon stored we headed south via the Bruce HWay and it was after about 10mins we came upon the slow moving traffice it took us about 45mins to get passed the rollover truck and once past this point the traffic was moving again at normal speed allowing us to arrive at Kallangur at 1230, so we actually made pretty good time. Brian backed Poppy up the side entrance and she is parked under the carport which is great as we can clean her and restock her for our trip south at the beginning of May, for now both Poppy and the car are under cover which is great.

The photo below is off Goggle Earth and shows the house where we are staying the caravan is to the left of the photo behind the cream awning. A few photos of the outdoors of the property, out the back there is a full length covered area great for sitting out having a cuppa, beer or wine
