Day 18 - Burpengary East to Diddlibah - Thursday 16th May 2024
SURPRISE, Happy Birthday, Garry!!!
A couple of months ago when we were doing trip planning with Neill and Jude, they mentioned it was Garry’s 70th birthday but that they didn’t think they would be in the same place on the day. Jude and Greg both suggested we could make it happen so over the last two months, we have secretly been planning this surprise for Garry. And it went to a tee!! We left camp this morning just before 10am, stopped for elevenses at the Banana Bender Hotel and checked into the caravan park right on 12pm. The reception staff were all in on the surprise so they supported us to drive around to our camp sites, park up and walk over to surprise Garry. He clearly had no idea - the look on his face as he worked out who had just arrived was priceless!
We set up our vans on our sites before settling in the afternoon for a good old chinwag. There was birthday cake, swimming and a hairdressing appointment for me. Check out how seriously Jude took my hair colouring, donning a bright orange mine tour suit!
The swimming afternoon was super fun. Thankfully the pool was heated because it wasn’t super warm, but we shared a lot of laughs as we all attempted the water slide.
After hair and swimming we all got ready for dinner, as we were heading to the caravan park’s restaurant. Cocktails, seafood and lots more laughs saw us wrap up the day of surprises. So much fun!
