Monday 13th April (Easter Monday)

Arrived here at the Pialba Caravan Park (Hervey Bay) on Thursday from Maroochydore on the Sunshine Coast. A comfortable 3hrs. We have a good site here and have extended our stay for an extra week (23rd). Kellie, my daughter & husband, Rory picked us up in a limo and we went to dinner at the Bayswater Resort. We had a lovely steak meal for only $10, which seems to be Thurs. Special.

Friday morning I was up and off for my walk which I haven't been able to do for awhile. A lovely walk along the Esplanade, passing through Pialba, Scarness & Torquay.

We had the privilage of being invited to Kellie's & Rory's friend's (Les)60th birthday celebration at his house, which carried on into early evening. Lovely meeting new friends. Les & his wife, Elaine were very good hosts. Photo: Self, Les & Kellie.

Sat. after breakfast both D'Arcy & I went the opposite direction on our bikes through Pt. Vernon which was about 4klms one way. After returning home and having our coffee we headed off again on our bikes to the supermarket for a few supplies. After an afternoon of relaxing and reading went for a short visit to Kellie's before heading home to put a couple of chops on the bbq and a few reds.

Sun: We were picked up by Kellie & Rory at 7.00am for a visit to the Koala Markets where I purchased a few vege items and had a super breakfast. D'Arcy as per photo with old car, says he used to have one just like this. On returning from the markets I made coffees & tea for us all before relaxing and then some preparation for pizzas I was making for dinner that night, with Kellie & Rory. As Kellie had to work on Monday it was an early night. Photo: one of our lovely pizzas.

Monday: Awoke to drizzling rain, but still went for my walk, carrying my umbrella. Managed to do 7klms. today. So now the weather has slowly deteriated to a quite heavy, steady downpour. We will see what tomorrow brings.
