Traffic Jam

Maroochydore, Australia

We didnt make it to Noosa, on the M1 we encountered a horrendous traffic jam due to an accident and we spent ours waiting in the traffic. First available opportunity we headed off and thought we were being clever by taking a back way. Alas, this was the diversion by the road authorities and it had resulted in a second accident further down the line so the traffic wasnt moving anywhere. We pulled off at a lovely beach setting in Maroochydore and thought we would have dinner while we waited for the traffic subside. A number of people joined us waiting out the jam and we had a chat with them and shared coffee with Rodger. The traffic still hadnt subsided by 8.00pm so we decided to stay there the night. It was a gorgeous setting with water, hills, pelicans, fish jumping etc. and quite enjoyable to have our breakfast watching. Off early for Eumundi (do you remember Janine and Julie?)

I do remember our time in Noosa in the little white Toyota hatch back. The little car struggled up the hills with us all in it!

Did you or will you be able to go the Australian Zoo Caitlin would love it?

I did ask for more comments, repeating them wasn't what I meant. I forgive you though, you are doing a super mum's job these days. Love to you and the rest of the clan
