Airlie Beach

While we are still camped at Midge Point, we took a drive into Airlie Beach to both get an easy fuel fill (using 16.5 litres per 100 klms while towing the new van) and to check out the town as it has been five years since we were here.

Well, the town is as lively as ever and they have turned the park that was at the back of the main street and facing the harbour into a pretty special place centred upon a couple of lagoons and it is really nice.

Lots of backpackers lying around soaking up the sunshine only added to the visual joys!  :) 

Talking of visual joys, the harbour is as beautiful as ever.


One for my brother and SIL - Hey guys, I think that is the cruise ship you sailed around Australia on!


They have also added a few bits of art work around the place. This one of the dugong is my favourite.



We ended the day eating fish and chips as we looked out over the harbour before driving back to Midge Point.

Lovely!
