Unfortunately, yes.

Although Noosa was a whistle stop tour in many ways, as three nights is only enough to scratch the surface we saw enough to know what a great place it is. It was a great recovery from the dip of the Gold Coast, and probably for me and Belinda Australia Zoo, where the bogun-ratio was off the charts. In many ways, Noosa was exactly what we were looking for and with our brief flirtation it put the spring back in our step. As is the case with the trip, eight weeks is not a long time, so on we must go and today, May 11th 2021 we leave Noosa.

I’m pretty sure we’ll be back. Not sure when, but we loved it.

The only downside was that the site manager was from Didsbury and supported Man United. But that’s ok, after I gave him a good kick in the nuts we were off. Calm down mum, that’s a joke! But we did have a good chat. Small world etc. For the geographically challenged amongst you, Didsbury is smallish town in Mancheter which was often frequented by me and my mates for many years.

Anyway, next on the list was the combo of Agnes Water and the town of 1770. These are two historical places, further up into Queensland and they look pretty impressive (if you beleive the hype).

So good goodbye Noosa, hello Agnes.

The trip to Agnes was a long one. Scheduled at well over four hours and we had noriced roadworks everywhere so far, so we were expecting more. And with four of us in tow, and meals to be considered this had the potential to be five or six hours if we were not careful.

We had looked at a cafe in Childers as the half way stop-off and that worked out pretty well, although we spent a bit more time there than we had intended, as it was a little overrun. But the food was great, as was the ambience.

After the feed, it was the second leg onto our destination at Agnes Waters.

As usual, the scenery and the Australian landscape was gorgeous, and although it was a long drive it was pretty enjoyable.

We arrived at our next Campsite, the Captain Cook Holiday village a around 4pm, which was actually located at 1770, but that is litrally one or two k’s only from Agnes Water so it was no big deal.

It was super-shady, and felt like were nestled into a bit of light rainforest. Not bad at all and very lush too.

We just had time for a quick trip back to the beach at Agnew Waters, and were greeted by a belter of a beach. We were also informed, that swimming was safe here, as stingers are not found in these waters. That was most welcome, especially as we had been informed that Noosa would be the last place we could go for a dip.

That was about it for the day. We made a bbq tea and ended the day pretty chillaxed and glad to be here. It will be interesting to see what we can discover tomorrow, and whether the beach will be anythng as good as Noosa.
