Au Revoir Motorhoming


Did it rain last night! I’m surprised we haven’t floated out to sea. It’s a morning of packing up and putting things back into place inside the motorhome before we set off to deliver Glad back to Britz. We’ve decided on a coastal drive, inspired by a couple we spoke to in Forster, they live in this area and assured us that there are lots of lovely beaches and towns between Noosa and Caloundra. We are so glad we took their advice as the small towns of Mudjimba, Maroochydore, Mooloolaba are all beautiful as is Caloundra where we stopped. There were several beautiful beaches, nice cafes/restaurants and shops. We can only sample one café and choose “The Naked Turtle”, which produced a great burger and open bacon, advocado and tomato sandwich all on Turkish bread.
Farwell "Glad" it's been a blast
Now for the last leg of the journey back to Britz, we don’t speak much, I think we’re both feeling a bit sad that this part of our Aussie adventure is over and we have become very attached to Glad. Even Gertie sat nav is reluctant to tell us how far we have to go. One last check of Glad and she’s gone, off to ferry people on another adventure. The taxi ride into Brisbane doesn’t take long and we’re soon at Morgan Suites on the South Bank. It’s a lovely one bedroom ultra-modern apartment on the top floor overlooking the mountains, city and building site opposite! The man in the crane is at eye level with us, I’m hoping for the diet coke break advert from him! The washing machine and dryer take a battering before we go out for a snack. The only place we find is a microbrewery pub called “The Charming Squire” – good beer, excellent pizza what more can I say.
