Shock to the system. Had to be out the front of the caravan park by 7am. T&R, the friends that live in the park opposite were picking us up to drive out to Bribie Island. They have a block there and their house is having the slab poured next week. Well I shouldn't have worried about the early start as we were awake anyway. First thing was the car alarm going off a 4.30am, although Ian had already been awoken by the emergency vehicle siren as there is both fire and ambulance stations nearby. Then the birds started at 5am and once disturbed by them you could hear the traffic noise. Anyway we were out the front waiting when T&R pulled up. We drove out to Bribie stopping for coffee on the way. Once on Bribie we drove to their block where the plumber was setting up the pipes. Had a sticky for awhile then drove to the marina for a look and a walk. Glorious day of 29 degrees with a cool breeze blowing off the water. Drove to the golf club and a then a full lap of the Island. We went for a couple of walks around the town ending up with a walk along the beach front. We sat in the shade and watched the water and were lucky enough to be entertained by two dolphins playing in the water. Back in the car and back across the bridge to the mainland and lunch at a tavern before returning to Brisbane. A wonderful way to spend the day with friends, although I am exhausted, anyone would think we walked to Bribie and back!
