My NOT Mungo trip

Hi,
I am just posting so I can have a bit of a whinge.

A couple of weeks ago I posted about going to Mungo.

Well I packed the car with all the gear I reckon I would need and then added twice as much gear I probably would not need Before going I thought I had better ring Balranald tourist office to see what the weather was like as was VERY cold at home (Canberra).

Unfortunately the roads were closed due to rain and were not expected to even be considered to be opened till the end of the week.

Being flexible and feeling the cold we made a snap decision and decided to go to Noosa. We traveled in land and the nights were VERY cold in the camper. One place that stood out was Narrabri. We only stayed overnight but will go back one day as there appears to a fair bit to do there.

We made Noosa and one observation is that place does not cater very well for camping. However we did find a good place - a Big 4 in Bouganville which is out of the Noosa/Sunshine coast area, We only saw two other camp areas.

Well Noosa was warmer but rained the whole bloody time. We did not see sun again until we vistited my daughter in Brisbane and then my son in Coffs.

The other negative is that as it was so cold at night SWMBO has gone off the camper (which has a canvas top) and we are looking for an upgrade.

So to summarise my gripe I had a lousy holiday, missed seeing yet another of the places I wanted to go and may have to shell out lots of dollars in upgrading to a better camper/caravan.

If you have read this far thanks for listening to my griping , if not and just read the last line you have not missed out on any thing go to another thread :)
