Our base at the moment is Townsville. The largest city in North Queensland. We're camped on our daughter's nature strip. It's always great to catch up with the kids and grandkids. We walked on the mudflats at Bushland Beach - a great place for the dogs to get a run and splash in the sea - and had a picnic lunch before wandering around the local markets.
We drove out to nearby Ross River Dam for morning tea in the picnic area. It's also a free camp. Lake Ross is the main water supply for the Townsville area, and it's BIG.
We drove up Castle Hill to see the lunar eclipse which was a bit of a fizzer due to cloud cover in the wrong place, but we had great views of Townsville anyway.
We're heading off to New Zealand for a couple of weeks and will be back in Townsville mid-May. So our next post will be from The Land of the Long White Cloud.
