Day Forty-Two -  Kin Kin, QLD Population is 764 Free camping two nights Fuel - $122.94  243km  ...Justin and Kerrie... Adam first met Justin at work (Lake Cowal) and soon became really good mates. Justin would come to our house for dinner when in town and Adam would go out to dinner with Justin the next night. This went on for a few years. Justin no longer works for the same company which means they don't get at catch up like that anymore. So when we started planning our trip Adam said that he really wanted to visit.. So we locked it in! They live in the Hinterland on the Sunshine Coast. On an acreage block on top of a hill with magnificent views. Now when I say on a hill, I had no idea the incline was going to be this steap.. as we drive (whilst towing a 27-foot caravan) Adam put the ute into 4WD and I honestly thought that the front wheels of the ute are going to come off the road...  Now I trust Adam with my life! But this makes me feel very uneasy...

Day Thirty-six -  Giru Grass area Free camping - one night Fuel - $67.00 We've driven a long way and the kids have been amazing again. We have lunch at Ingham and hit the road again. Townsville was on the list to stop and check out as I've met this lady named Tabitha Jane..... I know right! Who would have thought that there was another lady with the same name.. Love it! I came across Tabitha on social media, who also has a side hustle (different to mine). So we pull up at The Strand and found a nice park for the kids to play at and we just got chatting, it was like we have known each other for years. Thank you, Tabitha, for taking time out of your busy day to catch up in person 💗 We drove a few more Km's and land ourselves at Rockhampton.
