We are parked up at the Black River Stadium Van park about 20 km north of Townsville off the Hervey Range road and on to Black River road. We will be here for a week or two to catch up with friends and get some business attended to.

Saturday 23rd
Departed Townsville today travelling to Balgal beach for a night camping at the free R.V. camp next to the Fisherman's Landing kiosk where we intend to have takeaways for dinner.
A lovely spot, the beach is great and Dot and Yip had a ball playing in the surf. Had a try fishing from the pontoon by the kiosk, no luck, the only thing biting were the sand flies!!! (Mongrel things they are too!!)

Great walking the beach this morning the sunrise wasn't spectacular but beautiful in a cool crisp sort of way.
We left early to spend tonight at Lucinda.
This is the site of the Lucinda Sugar Terminal. The photo and captions on these two photos tell it all. A very interesting experience and heaps of fun.
Monday 25th
Anzac Day. A public holiday. It's raining too!!
We made our way to Cardwell this morning to spend some time with another good friend, Gail, and catch up with a few others in the area.
Wednesday 27th
The weather is showery and overcast, as it has been since arriving in Cardwell, nothing much really, can't dampen our spirits, a little moisture has to be experienced now and again.
We checked out an old haunt this morning, Bedford Creek, a little place to camp for a while to go fishing and crabbing and relaxing away from the madding crowd. We will head out there when the weather heals again.
Another great month has come and gone, life is a blast. Keep smiling, catch you in May.
