We haven't been there since our kids were very young and it was nice to revisit this lovely town again, there are some great little shops there for a browse around.
The motel we stayed in had a family of deer in a field at the back ....very novel!
We then headed up to Toowoomba, a first for us, we both quite liked this very large town.
We headed just out of town to a place called Highfields where we met up with my very good friends Khris & Amanda. Khris's hubby Glen joined us as well as he was not long back from military duty in the Middle East. Craig & Glen sat and chatted in the sun while us girls hit the lovely quilt shop - Quilters Angel - and the gift shops.
After a few hours of chatting and catching up and a very yummy lunch, we farewelled our friends (until October girls!!) and headed across to the coast to Alexander Headland on the sunshine coast.
We spent a week here in a nice apartment across the road from the beach. The weather was all over the place, warm, sunny, cold, raining............but we made the most of it and had a nice relaxing break.
While we were there Lynda & Kayly came up one day from Brisbane and took me out quilt shop shopping and lunch. It was great to catch up with more friends!!
When we left QLD we headed down the coast road to Coffs Harbour where the weather was absolutely atrocious!! But the highlight of the stopover was dinner with more great friends Suzie & Dawnie!! Suzie opened up her home to us and invited us for dinner, it was a lovely night to sit and chat and make new friends, well new for the men LOL
But of course I couldn't do a holiday post without some food!!! LOL
