After a quick 5km walk for each of us, and breakfast, it was time to pack up and leave for Bowen. We left 15 minutes ahead of the scheduled departure time of 9am and headed to Proserpine for mornos. We re-fuelled at Kuttabul whilst the others zoomed on past. When they got to Proserpine, they couldn't find any decent parking spots for RVs so continued on to Cedar Creek Falls. Unfortunately, we did not know this until we had stopped at the back of the hospital and were quite ready for a brew, so decided to be totally unsociable! By the time we had finished, we decided to give CCF a miss and head straight onto Bowen.
We arrived at the Harbour Lights Caravan Park just after midday and after setting up headed straight for Woolies to re-stock. We then had lunch and an LLD (Greg's wasn't so little though); Wendy found it difficult to sleep due to the new arrivals and their mates yelling instructions to the driver in not so subtle voices. The two ladies especially, and obviously do not know the meaning of "inside voice".
Greg then went for a walk back to Woolies as we had forgotten to buy yoghurt. He also stopped off at the hardware store.
Some bad news for Gunther and Yvonne - Yvonne had injured her foot a few days ago and the bruising and pain were getting worse. They went to the hospital here in Bowen and X-rays confirmed a broken foot. My goodness, Yvonne has been walking and riding on this foot for three days, and has now been told that she is not to ride for four weeks!
