JAPOONVALE

Leaving Bill & Lyn's property near Cardwell we headed into Tully to pickup our mail and do some shopping etc. Heading north from Tully we refueled at a small town called El Arish (Diesel $1.489) and turned off the Bruce Highway at Silkwood towards Paranella Park. Just past Japoonvale we arrived at our destination and campsite for the night on the Liverpool River, which we had spotted one day whilst doing a job in the area for BlazeAid. We were joined shortly afterwards by Barry & Jill from Maroochydore. After having a drink and chat with them we found that they were also travelling northwards.
