25–30 September 2010–Crows Nest Caravan Park, Crows Nest, QLD

Finally, we were able to get away from Brisbane.  We headed out along the Brisbane Valley Highway towards Crows Nest.  Just had to stop at the Bakery in Esk for a taste.  There was a group of old Ford cars doing a run through the area.  IMGP2490Even though it was cloudy, it was still a pleasant day for an outing.  So, after some photos and a coffee, Crows Nest here we come.  The plan was to spend the night there, and then head south towards Millmerran, perhaps spending a couple of nights somewhere in-between.  It was a good plan, but then that night it rained.  Not only in Crows Nest, but Millmerran received 30mm which brought the creeks up and flooded the showgrounds.  We received word of this via the owner of Crows Nest, and decided that, caution being the name of the game, we would stay there until the weather cleared a bit, and Millmerran showgrounds dried out.  We had a good, if quiet week.  Wandered around the area and went out to Lake Cressbrook and Lake Perseverance, as well as the Crows Nest National Park.
