Pictorial Update...at last!

NB: Actually posted it on Friday, June 11th.

Phew! After 3 different internet sessions over three weeks, totalling about 5 hours (I knoooow), finally I have these loaded! But still you have to sit sideways for quite a few! (Roberrrrt? Thanks for the help with the time! How do I fix the pics?)
Anyway! Enjoy! (And I hope you don't need to call the chiropractor as a result!)



Three countries in three days is enough to knock us flat! We arrive in Brisbane.



The first of many animal encounters for Rosa.



Caboolture Urban Country Music Festival Main Concert - spot the hats!



Gordy at Bribie Island, near Caboolture.



The Urban Blaze Concert at the Caboolture Festival.



Kingaroy - if you can get the flavour on a chip you can also get it on a peanut, apparently!



Bunya National Park



Not swagmen and not a billabong...but a jolly Australian experience all the same. Jondaryan Woolsheds.



Rosa learns to spin at the Jondaryan Heritage Day.



Giraween National Park.



Still in Giraween.

She hunted it down and ate it! Beard Papa, Mt Gravatt. Thanks, Rosemary for the directions and to TomTom for taking us there - only 1km out of our way!



Lee Kernaghan and friend. Great seats, huh!



Smitten!



Is it a courgette?...is it an eggplant?..no! It's a jolly Big Pineapple.



Lakeside at Boreen Point.



Our camp at Boreen Point - just a few steps to the lake shore.



The gorgeous pub at Boreen Point.



Finn and a kookaburra get friendly...little did Finn know that his toast would be taken from his plate the very next day by one of these guys!



Eumundi Markets. Not a great pic - just a lovely town and a nice spot!


The Carlo Sandblow above Rainbow Beach. It is a 120m high sand dune. Hard to get the perspective on the camera!


Finn cooking Sunday lunch at Inskip point while the rest of us relax! The BEST ever toasted cheese sandwiches!

Rosa in animal-lovers' heaven with the local dolphins at Tin Can Bay.

Sometimes the thought of one more sensible family photo just puts us over the edge!


At Rubyvale. Can anybody guess why this photo was a must?!
