We were going to have a lazy morning after our bacon and eggs breakfast, but we were distracted by the commotion outside.
What do you do when you get your 13 tonne motorhome / bus bogged
in a hole this size?
Easy, you get one of these (can u spot the nosey campers?)
Lawn Bowls again, this time at Mareeba Bowls Club. One of the bowlers (Sue Brady) is in the Qld Ladies Squad.
This year she won the 2013 Australian Open Ladies Pairs and came 3rd outright in the 2013 Australian Ladies Singles. Great bowler and personality, doesn't have tickets on herself and is born and bred in the Mareeba area.
Monday
Moved 50kms down the track to Yungaburra in the Atherton Tablelands. The caravan park is situated on Lake Tinaroo and is only $20.00 per night for a powered site.
Although Monday arvo turned out a bit 'drizzly', we couldn't resist a drive to waterfalls.
We thought the waterfall would be a nice quiet spot for a lunch and a snapshot. How wrong could we be.
Three bus loads of bloody tourists (oh that includes me) have gone ballistic in the rain and it now resembles a Public Swimming Pool.

TuesdayMixed Social Bowls again at Atherton Bowls Club today. All six teams ended up with one win / one loss for the day. The 'lucky draw' was won by . . . . . not us.
The sunset tonight was quite spectacular;

Wednesday
Foggy morning across the mountains as we moved on to Rollingstone / Vincent (Bushy) Parker Rest Stop which is dedicated to a local WW2 pilot. The rest stop has thirty sites with water (no power) but it's a real beauty.
Thursday
Pushed on to Charters Towers . . . very interesting place
Friday
I finally found the problem with our leaking shower. A nine inch crack in the shower pan. Grrrrrrr.
This will need to be poly-welded when we get home. 'Not happy Jan'
Saturday
Day trip out to Fletchers Creek, about 40kms north of Charters Towers. This 'Free Camp' is very popular with caravanners and campers alike.
It's not on the road to most destinations, so perhaps that's why it's popular?
