It was cold overnight, even with my two furry hot water bottles. I had topped up the diesel heater tank from our jerrycan, so was able to warm us up without any risk of annoying neighbours with heater noise. After breakfast Tilly was able to stretch out and enjoy the sunshine.
We stopped for a break at Ulmarra. Without realising it we had parked outside a shop with an Art Deco tile facade and stainless door and window frames, next to an antiques shop.
Across the road the church roof has been painted, except for one side of the ridgetop turret. The house next door has interesting front windows and paintwork under the gable.
We could only book two nights at the Kirra caravan park because the Cooly Rocks On Festival starts tomorrow and continues through to Sunday. Thousands of visitors descend on Coolangatta for the rock ‘n roll nostalia festival celebrating cars from the 50s, 60s and 70s. We saw a group of vehicles stopped on the highway as one car had broken down. A few are staying here.
We are back in Queensland, but only just – the State boundary is about 100m from our Bushtracker.
This photo came up on facebook. It was five years ago on a trip to WA. Coco struggled to get in or out of the car or caravan so I carried him.
We drove the short distance to Siblings@Kirra for dinner. The rhubarb crème brûlée was exceptional.
I was using Tilly’s pouch bed to warm my feet, but she decided to get in so it must be cold as she has lots of fur! When we get the next warm day she is likely to start moulting.
