24 August 2010–Petrie Park, Tiaro

This was a really long, hard days drive – I think we travelled about 60km.  Not our shortest by a long shot, but add in the van cleaning????

This is the first time we’ve actually stayed at Petrie Park, and it’s really quite lovely.  On the banks of the Mary River just to the north of Tiaro it has two areas separated by a (presently) dry creek.  Any sort of heavy rain, and I think they’ll have only one area!  We had happy hour with our neighbours (as you do!) and got a really good nights sleep in the peace and quiet of the bush (a bit different from Hervey Bay).
