Easter in Moore Park!

We took off camping in a place called Moore Park which is about 20 km away from Bundy. It was great! It gave us a chance to test out all of our new camping equipment and see what we don't need and what we don't have. We had so much fun. We set out tent up with almost no problems (I can't believe I don't have a picture of it!) and we cooked up some gorgeous food (no fire pits, though).

We went to Moore Park because one of the women Phil works with, Vanessa, was going out there with her family so we decided to go to the same place. I think one of the highlights of the weekend was the tour they took us on. Vanessa's husband is a farm manager and he took us on a full tour of the sugarcane, including an old sugar refinery stocked with loads of machinery. We got to see one of the huge machines in action. It was wicked and will give us way more appreciation of the vegetation we see every time we drive from Bargara to Bundy.

Another highlight was that one of our neighbors serenaded us with his didgeri-doo! It was so cool to be chilling out in the day time and hearing the cool "bwaa-waaa-waa" of his didg'.

I have to say Easter was made better by these chocolate treats you can get - not just chocolate bunnies, but bilbies, wombats and koalas. I got Phil a bilby and wombat which sadly melted before Easter, and re-cooled as flatted versions of their former selves, but they were so fun.

This is is also the big unveiling of "Big Red", our landcruiser. We got it in Bundy from the nicest family imaginable and, according to the mechanics who have looked at it, in great shape mechanically and without a trace of rust. Anyway, we're very happy with it, especially since Phil got the stereo revamped.
