Hi Folks,
The day started with a laugh.
Susan poked her head out of the toilet and said,
“Did you use the toilet this morning?”
“Yes first thing”
“Have you used it since?”
“No”(now knowing where this is going)
“Are you sure?”
“I did put my fingernail clippings in there”
“Thank god for that I thought you had worms”
As decided yesterday John and Wendy took us for a tour of the towns up on the Blackall Range behind the Sunshine Coast. We headed through Nambour, Mapleton, Mapleton Falls, and onto Montville. Montville is a pretty tourist town with the usual shops and a host of eateries. It is like Kuranda but with more class. After browsing some shops we had a bite of lunch and coffee and moved on to Maleny passing along Mountain View Road and stopping for a great view of the Glass House Mountains(named by Cook).

We headed back down the hill and took up Johns offer of a coastal tour from Caloundra back up to Twin Waters, stopping to view several of the beaches.
We returned home. John and Wendy headed to a birthday party. After reheating our pasta from last night we settled down to some travel administration tasks. We are both now succumbing to the raging sore throat virus which is the first time we have really been sick since we have been away.
Sadly tomorrow we move on John and Wendy have been terrific hosts and have really made us welcome. It is a great help to be guided to the best locations in an area. Thanks guys!
Cheers Simon
