Chilling out in 1770

Set off from Hervey Bay, next stop 1770.  En route passed through Childers – a beautiful town lined with heritage buildings - crowned by a brand new McDonalds at the northern gateway to the town  :(  Made a lunch stop at Bundaberg but were devastated to miss the Bundy distillery (Rich for the rum, Kel because she was sure there would have been a big Bundy bear there!)  Playgrounds are becoming a bit of a theme now...










Have started booking ahead now, the camp sites are so busy.  Lucky we did.  This campsite makes no apologies for targeting the nomad market - it's on their brochure!  1770 is one of the most peaceful places we have ever been to.  Pretty much everyone there was on holiday, enjoying doing nothing.  Everyone was friendly and I think we all new how lucky we were to be there.  Come sunset, chairs were lined up on the beach to enjoy the spectacle over a beverage.  The kids, who formed a bit of a tribe, played on the sand and roamed to the park.  Decided to stay an extra night to soak up the vibe.
