Hitchin the Wagon and Head’in North

 Day 28-31 5 days in Noosa was a lovely way to end our holidays. We walked along Hasting Street, looked at the  beautiful water, climbed to the lookout, went deep sea fishing by myself, visited markets, received visitors, did a sunset cruise, swam and drank.  Our holiday has been one fantastic adventure. Weather was fantastic and I was quite happy when I woke this morning to see it raining. It was great to have Eds sister & B-I-L Nancy and Stephen who travelled with us for 9 days and good to stop in Gladstone to see some more family, it was good to catch up with my cousin Lynelle and her husband Robert and to meet their kids and THEIR kids. Had a catch up with Eds other sister Jean and her husband Pete. When we got to Noosa we have special visitors Alicia, Fabio and their son (my tormentor) Lucas. We have travelled over 5750km, stayed in 9 Caravan parks, 1 pub & 2 houses. Collected over 100 succulents, created 2 macrame plant hangers, many stickers & hat pins....
