Day 1 - Home to Toowoomba: 158 kms

Having decided to stay the first night in Toowoomba so that the journey to Injune would be 150kms shorter and more relaxed, I planned to leave at 11 and on the way through Capalaba I would visit the bank to get some change. I know the bank in Toowoomba but I took a wrong turn and had to go round the block to try again. After a couple of further wrong turns going round the block I eventually found the shopping centre that my bank is in.

Or was in.

The building that was the bank a couple of months ago is now a gutted empty shell! Maybe my bank has gone bust! I'd better get out of town!

An inauspicious start for a long journey when I can't find my way through the town where I shop regularly! After that all went well and it was an easy drive to Toowoomba. The campsite is a luxury one where I have an ensuite site for my tent.

Introduction

I'm off again on another trip. This time it's a mixture of old and new. First destination is Carnarvon Gorge where I have been twice before - this is the old.

The new is that I'm going in my new car, with a new computer which works on a new operating system that is supposed to be easy to use but I still don't know how it works! Also I have a new phone and internet provider that this literary work has to pass through.

So anything can happen.

What may be a small complication is that I have no idea where I'm going after Carnarvon! But neither have you, so come with me and we'll explore together!
