Bunderberg/Bagara Beach







We left Callopie Tuesday travelling to Bargara Beach Caravan Park, after spending 2 nights at Callopie free camp. We only passed 2 wide loads on the 288 km trip, one donga (6.5m wide), and a mine truck (5.5m wide). The weather was overcast but warm, but since we been here at
Bargara we have had continuous rain and a big bit cooler, only 16 deg yesterday!! As the weather was not the best thought we would go and have a look at the Hinkler Hall of Aviation, which is dedicated to Bert Hinkler who was a pioneer pilot from Bunderberg who flew from England to Australia solo in 1928. Also next to the Hall is Hinkler House (Mon Repos) which was dismantled in England and relocated and reassembled in Bert's birth place of Bunderberg.
We had a surprise visit from Carlene and Rex who are staying here at Bargara for two nights before heading down to Hervey Bay.
