Seaforth.......cont

We are having a lovely relaxing time here at Seaforth, have now been here for two weeks. The days are slipping by very quickly, we have less than a week left before we leave and go inland again heading for Emerald. We have been into Mackay a couple of times for supplies and to use the Laundromat as there are not any washing machines here at the campground, my hand washing skills do not include sheets and towels ! Tuesday we went for a day trip to the Eungella National Park and Broken River where you can view Platypus in the river, unfortunately we did not spot any but did see lots of Turtles. We went through acres and acres of cane fields and some lovely little towns on the way, then the last part of the road going up to Eungella was very steep with a gradient of 12 degrees in parts, was not looking forward to coming back down but it did not seem as bad on the descent.
Tomorrow we are off to bowls again, lets hope they pull the shade covers across as we played last Sunday with the covers on and it was quiet pleasant. We have been making good use of our bikes here as it is lovely and flat and very easy riding, so the car has been having a well earned rest. Bazza has even been to the beach to get a little sand between his toes !
