Sunday Drive

Went for a Sunday drive through Ipswich and then up the back way to Toowoomba with Ron and Jo.

Beside the Bremmer river railway bridge.

something else enjoying the morning sun


Had to try didn't I ...


wandered over to Saint Marys for a look


hitching posts


We stopped at Grandchester for a bit of a squizz




Aussie Tardis ??


we drove on past the Lockyer Hotel




then stopped at Spring Bluff Railway Station






Then after a late lunch at Toowoomba we headed for home.

Thanks to Jo and Ron for the great Company.

Fingal Head

John, Steve and I headed down to Fingal on saturday morning meeting up with Jo and Ron at the Lighthouse on Fingal Headland at the first faint glimmer of light.


looking east over the volcanic outcrop towards the little island offshore


there is a narrow channel that you can cross at low tide if your game to get out to the extremity


the sun started to peek over the horizon


looking back towards the mainland


looking back at the waves surging through the channel


then it was dodge the wave surges and sprint back to the mainland


and with one final look at the lighthouse we headed off


to Coolangatta for breakfast...


Steve was still feeling the effects of someone spiking his Vodka with orange juice


Ron enjoying his mugachino foam


then Steve stole my camera and shot Jo and myself, John and also Ron.




after Brekky, Jo and i wandered over to the beach to get a few shots.


Steve is probably not allowed to show his face in Coolangatta again after stirring all and sundry at the coffee shop so we headed Northwards.


We called in at Currumbin where the wildlife has made use of the man made trees


then walked out to watch the surfers but there was not much swell around.


Then it was back to the Steves for another coffee to finish off the morning.


Thanks to all the others for an enjoyable day!
