Monday 1st December - Pimpama to Hastings Point

A warm sultry day with the possibility of some showers.

Well today we are about to hit the road again.

So just after lunch we left, as the WDH towbar needed to be adjusted and rotated 180 degrees. Finally after 6 months and 17 days we have left the state of Queensland. A pleasant drive with a few spots of rain, until we got closer to our destination. Boy, did it rain. At one stage I couldn't see through the windscreen as the rain and gusty winds were so strong. Clive had slowed right down. Sadly nowhere for us to pull over, but we did arrive safely just as the down pour was finishing. Tonight it's the Hastings Point Holiday Park and we have a site that we can stay hitched upto.

The beach is just over the road, but we can't actually hear the surf from where we are as we are at the opposite end of the park.

Clive set both GPS units to the destination. Our portable Garmin plus the inbuilt one in the Jeep. It was quite amusing to hear one go off and then the other, as they kept changing who would comment first. Both got us to the correct destination as one had GPS co-ordinates set and the other the street address.

Off to Evans Head tomorrow as lots of one night stop overs, as we need to make up for the extra week we had to spend on the Coast. We'll still have a few days up our sleeves just in case, but hopefully we are on track to keep to our plan.
