3 to 7 February 2014

While heading north through Cardwell we came across Debbie's brother Greg & his wife Judy.  They were on their way to a meeting in Townsville overnight.  We had coffee with them & arranged to stay at their place in Babinda for a few days.

I've got to say the Bruce Hwy is in very good condition from Rockhampton through to Cardwell at present with the rest under quite a bit of road works.  Cardwell looks great with the beachfront all renewed after the previous cyclones.

We had the usual weather for this time of year with wet & humid days.  It was great catching up with Greg, Judy & family as it's been quite a while since we've been up this way.  Judy took us for a drive & walk up to the Babinda Boulders that were flowing very well due to the rains.  We checked out Angie & Brads block with a huge shed that they are in the process of having closed in and converted to living quarters.

Friday, Greg & Judy headed into Cairns to stay for a few days to celebrate Greg's 60th birthday.  We'll  be joining them for dinner on the Saturday night.
