The last couple of days have been spent travelling further down the east coast towards Rainbow Beach. We stopped south of Rockhampton and decided to camp in the wild instead of finding a campsite. This turned out to be a mistake as we found out the next morning after a goodnights worth of rain. Our camper was stuck on the side of the road and the more we tried to get it out, the more it burried itself in mud! Luckely, a farmer driving by noticed our troubles and said that he would go get a tractor to pull us out. Within 15 minutes he was back with another mate, they attached a long chain and pulled the sorry little camper out of the mud within minutes. What friendly people and angels we had all around us!
We spent the afternoon in Bundaberg, where the famous Australian Rum originates. Anja had another session with a Chiropractic and I visited the Rum distillery just outside of town with two samples at the end :) We continued on the the beautiful town of Maryborough where we spent the night and visited the city this morning. Next it's on to Rainbow Beach where we will embark on a 3-day tour to Fraser Island. We will be driving a 4WD through the biggest sand Island of the world where freshwater lakes and rivers exist in abundance.
