After leaving Moree at 10.30 this morning, we drove to Goondiwindi on the Queensland border, then on to Toowoomba. After passing through what seemed like wide flat country, the road down the range out of Toowoomba came as a bit of a shock. Very steep and winding, we hadn't realised how high we were. We knew we would have to cross the Great Dividing Range sometime, just the approach from the west was so gradual.
The roads so far in Queensland are rougher than NSW and Vic, but the big B-double semis seem to do OK, passing us as we cruise along at 100 km/p/h.
We are free camped tonight at a roadside stop about 20kms down from Toowoomba, and will drive to Brisbane tomorrow morning, hoping to navigate around the city to get to Caboolture, where a niece lives. We thought we could annoy her for a couple of days before heading further north.
Artesian spa pools at the Moree Caravan Park. We luxuriated in the hot pool for a while this morning, ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh,
very nice.
