Kauri Creek Camp - Near Tin Can Bay

27.08.2010
Departed Friday directly after dropping the child off in VIV - we found it funny she didn't
We weren't too sure where we would end up so we checked out Kauri Creek Camping - yep great spot but CRAP major alert..... Michelle forgot the Wine......
Off to Tinnanbar - no shops LOL
Off to Poona - yep a shop with frozen bait, frozen bread, margarine, 3 packets of chips NO Wine.. Michelle was gasping at this stage in fear.
Off to Maryborough we had to go to get the wine... a extra 70klm all up to make sure Michelle had her wine.
We now think Viv thinks she if 4x4 .... a secret we haven't told her any different as with the approach to the camp ground she took us over a bit of sand and through mud.....
We finally selected a spot at 130pm with all the driving we still pulled in good time.















Camp site no 1

Adam tried to fish but ground was too muddy
Campfire was great watched abit of a movie












Wine... expensive due to travel time, cheese $7.95, crackers $2.75 Sunset priceless


Awoke to a BEAUTIFUL day. We went for a walk and bugger us dead there was a better outlook spot.... Lesson always drive around the whole camp ground to look first. Walked back to Viv - packed her up quickly and moved to spot number within 10 mins we were packed and reset up in the new spot.
















Our outlook from camp spot no 2
















Here was great fishing... Adam caught a large Flathead and a Taylor.



















Enough for dinner

He caught both fish by hooking little fish and then re hooking that one to swim out and Bang a bigger fish...
It was funny though the first little fish he caught and re hooked, the poor little thing swam and swam but got no where off the shoreline.... UMMMM Adam you dumbass the size of the sinker is too heavy for that fish to move..... Michelle was rolling around in the sand laughing.


We had some other campers around us tonight so we had the pleasure as we sat around our campfire listening to their bad taste in music, until we retired to bed..... ZZZZZZZ















Sunset around near camp no 2

29th August 2010 Departing Kauri Creek Campground we headed home towards Gympie..... Viv pulled a shreechy and pulled up quick on the Tin Can Bay Road at the turn off via Kin Kin & Pomona what a beautiful drive.... through a National Park, and all the fruit stalls and YES before my friends ask I did do the proper thing and pay the right amount.. some times I don't if I think they are asking too much but I did do the right thing... just so you know I learnt that off JB.
