An early wake up just because we couldn't sleep. We were up and having our coffee not long after. After a chat with G&Y while they had breakfast, we left Roma at 8am. We stopped at The Heritage Village at Miles to have breakfast and mornos, fully intending to have a stroll through the village. After eating, we decided we should just keep going. We stopped again at Chinchilla for some groceries so that we would have some stuff to eat until we can get into Hervey Bay on Monday.
We chose a minor road from Chinchilla to Wondai and it was very lumpy indeed. It was really, really good in some places, but downright abysmal in others. We arrived in Wondai just before 2:30pm so took 6.5 hours to travel not even 400km. Maybe we were driving too conservatively however, we were in no hurry. We will probably not venture out on this road again; rather go via Dalby even though it is slightly longer.
After setting up in the Wondai Rest Area, a free camp set up by the Town Council with toilets and free showers. Not that we need either however, there are some that do and most then support the town by eating at the pub, etc. We just free-loaded and made our own dinner.
Just after we tuned the TV in so we could watch the Broncos play, the rain came down and stuffed up the reception. The weather app says it will only last 30 mins.
It was great to catch up with G&Y and hope they have a wonderful trip to wherever they go.
We will be home tomorrow, a little over 5 weeks since we left.
