Monday 6th, Tuesday 7th & Wednesday 8th June

Monday-On the road by 9.15a.m. heading towards the coast. Detoured via Beerwah and spent a few hours at Australia Zoo. Was very neat, beautiful setting and gardens. Also visited the Wildlife Hospital, not many patients being seen, just a turtle, pink galah and a koala. Had a little trouble finding the showground, found it by accident. Was meant to be closed for June/July but the caretaker was kind enough to let us stay for three nights anyway.

Tuesday-Overcast but quite warm. Went for about a bike ride along the bike track that winds its way around the waterfront. Beautiful setting, a swimming pool with wheelchair access, amazing! Had a nice coffee and cake at a cafe then headed home. Quick lunch, packed the fishing gear, spent an hour at Woods Point, no luck! Changed direction  and went north to Scarborough, had lots of bites, Bruce caught a whiting but he escaped! Had a very enjoyable day!

Wednesday- Overcast again but cooler as well. Redcliffe Botanical Gardens first, not very exciting and nearly got pooped on by flying foxes. Yuk! Next Redcliffe Museum, well worth the visit! Quick lunch then off to Scarborough fishing again. We caught 1 Garfish, 1 Bream and 1 Whiting, not enough for a feed so we threw them all back. Was cold sitting on rock wall, so back to home for a nice warm coffee!
