Enjoying Queensland
09 December 2017
Floss
We made our way to Scarborough Marina and enjoyed a warm friendly welcome from Richard and staff.
While we were at Scarborough Marina we took the opportunity of having lots of services around and we replaced all our house and starter batteries ready for a trouble free start next season.
It was nice to catch up with Jeff, Peta and kids on Be and Be and a couple other Down Under rally participants who were also enjoying the great facilities and location of Scarborough Marina.
Before we knew it, it was time for us to hire a car and pick our Mums up who were flying in from Perth. Wow, after not driving for a few months the Brisbane traffic seemed really busy and probably even busier for Mike as he hadn't driven since being in Perth a year ago.
Mikes Mum is 83 and my Mum 76 so it was important we waited to get them on the boat when we knew they had an easy flight and we had a good Safe easily accessible marina berth. The Safe inland water ways of Moreton Bay and the Gold Coast made their first stay on OOROO very comfortable and enjoyable.
In the following ten days we had a lot of fun with the oldies on board, got a bit of fishing in, played lots of scrabble, ate lots of seafood, drank lots of wine and went to The Outback Spectacular.
