Camping at Yarraman - Day 3 & 4

Day 3 - Easter Sunday, so the bunny visited and left a basket of goodies for Clay :)  Bacon pancakes for breakfast and a bucket of Easter goodies to share.

Clay particpated in the Easter egg hunt around camp and had lots of fun following the clues :)  Then back to the vanity to chill for a bit and snuggles up in his new shark blanket LOL

Krosty & Sharyn decided to chill and have naps, so Craig, Clay, Druncle and I decided to hop in the car and headed off exploring.  First stop was Coomba Falls - very popular with lots of people picnicking and swimming. It was 125 steps down to the botyom of the falls / swimming area. We didn't pack swimmers, so splashed around in the rock pools (much warmer than the freezing water )[)) and Clay & Druncle went exploring over the rocks.

Back up 125 steps and into the car to head to Muntapa Tunnel.  It's 260m straight tunnel and in the middle (area is closed off by gates) is a colony of bent wing bats).

After our walking and exploring we were hungry so decoded to head to Oakey for a late lunch at the RSL - delcious meal! We were hoping the air museum would be open at the airforce base, but it's kbly open on Wednesdays.

We drove back to camp, stopping at Yarraman to find the hand-carved statues and metal work horse.  Kristy and Sharyn had the fire going, so after a dinner of cootie board we sat around chatting.

Day 4 - We were up, packed and on the road by 9am. Back home can unpacked, washed & put away, washing done and bags unpacked.  A fabulous 4 days away and looking foward to another trip away.

Camping at Yarraman - Day 2

Saturday morning we had breaky boats and headed off to the markets at Nanango.

I was surprised with how many stalls there were! Beth and Des met us there and we spend the morning wandering around looking at everything.

After the markets we drove to Kingaroy to have lunch.

On the way back to camp we stopped off at the drag line bucket outside of Yarraman.

Clay and Drunkle braved the freezing water in the pool LOL  We had dinner from the food trucks and spent the night chatting around the fire.

Camping at Yarraman - Day 1

We headed to Yarraman for the Easter long weekend with Kristy, Druncle and a friend Sharyn. We had booked this trip 2 years ago, but had to delay it due to Craig's surgery and then Kristy's surgery...so it was long overdue LOL  We booked powered ensuite sites - so nice nit yo have to walk to the toilets / showers!

We arrived about 1pm and set up - nice to know we remembered how to set it all up since its been so long since we've camped LOL  Kristy cooked fish tacos for Good Friday and we had a chilled night catching up.  There were some food trucks so we had hot donuta for dessert.

Easter Hat Parade

I love the school's Easter hat parade tradition - it's great to see the kid's creativity and they are so proud walking around showing them off :) I was a little sad to think this is the last year Clay will do it since he's off to high school next year.  Being on the same day as Clay's birthday + end of term - meant a fun filled day!
