Agnes Waters
Plans are made to be broken – so they say. It also seems that itineraries are made to be changed.
We had planned to stop overnight at Clairview (halfway between Mackay and Rockhampton.) However, when we set up camp, we changed our mind. Who could blame us – look at the view from our kitchen window?

Merril experimented and tried baking a cake in the bread machine – and it worked out brilliantly. That will need to be remembered for next holidays. We had previously baked some in the Weber Baby Q – but the bread machine was more successful – no burnt bottom!

The plan was then to drive to Agnes Waters / 1770 and spend two nights there, and then two nights at Woodgate (near Bundaberg) to arrive home in Brisbane on Friday.

We now think we will probably just drive straight through to Brisbane tomorrow and arrive home a few days early. That will give us time to clean the van etc. and still have time to relax before Merril returns to work next Monday. We will save exploring south of Mackay for another holiday. Something to look forward to in the future.
We have camped at a bush camp (The Reef Caravan Park) near Agnes Water. A lovely spacious campsite with very few other campers here. It is only a few minutes drive from the beach. Highly recommend it if you ever come camping up here.

So this will be our last blog entry for our North Queensland holidays.
It has been a great holiday. We have seen lots of different scenery and many hundreds of photos have been taken. Looking forward to catching up with you all on our return.
As a last thought ... earlier on in the holiday we saw this Avan! They had mounted the avan onto the back of a truck!
