Day 6 - Burpengary East to Noosaville - Friday 3rd May 2024

The beautiful people we have met through owning this brand of caravan are showing through again as tonight we are parked up at the home of John and Kerry who we met in Tasmania last year  - they attended the mini gathering of Sunland caravans that I organised last February. We hit it off quite well, saw them again last December and tonight we are camped out the front of their house!

We arrived here just after lunch, the caravan now having driven (been driven!) it's first 100km! It's been raining a lot but the drive was OK, and the van handled well. We stopped for lunch at the Banana Bender pub - good caravan parking you see!


Our first night's sleep in the new van was lovely. Even knowing all the batteries and inverter and solar power we have, I was still a little nervous to make my first coffee with my fancy red coffee machine running off the caravan power. But, it worked a treat and the special cupboard Sunland built for me to store the coffee machine in is also perfect. 

We pottered around all morning, playing with a few more things and Greg finding homes for others. We really can't truly set up until we get our other three boxes of caravan goodies. Now the new hitch does take some getting used to and hooking up took much longer than it used to in the old van but I'm sure we'll get better at that with some practice.

Our afternoon rolled into evening with John and Kerry and a few glasses of wine followed by a delicious dinner that Kerry prepared. Such a lovely day with lovely people.
