"The Promontory" Banskia Beach -  Bribie Island

Today we pack up our little “Poppy” pop top caravan after spending the last 5mths in it at Caloundra.

We met the homeowners in the PM for all the do's & dont's nothing like that, just the general exchanges of ph numbers, email addresses etc, it was agreed that we come back around 7.30pm to take them to the airport as they were flying out later that night. We had to use their wagon a much larger vehicle than ours & Chris drove & did really well. We duly arrived & got them to the airport bade farewells and we It then headed back to the Sunshine Coast making our usual stop off at Nudgee for a dinner/drink stop.

Arrived back at Bribie around 2200 & heading back to the van park to turn the fridge off so it defrosted for the next day. Taking all the food out of the fridge we headed back to “The Promontory” (Prom) for short to start our first night in the house. It is beautiful 4bdrms, 2 bathrooms, 3loos, huge lounge/living/

kitchen and amazing outdoor areas with views over the canal - oh and a pool also a pontoon with 2 boats. The following day we took poppy to the storage area where Terry has his van parked up when back in NZ, we needed it close by as we will be going back to the van park for 12days once the homeowners come home, which means we will have some time with Terry & Patricia before we head to our next house sit in the Hinterland of the Gold Coast where we will be for almost 3wks, but will leave that for another entry. It's just like being on a holiday in a resort.
