After two days we have just made it home - so this will be the Last Post. The road between Mackay and Gladstone is a shocker (bumpy, poor tarmac, single lane and no passing bays), but from Gladstone to Brisbane it is first class (except for the shock of so much traffic starting north of Gympie!). We were surprised the highway met the coast between Mackay and Rockhampton at Clareview, which was quite nice with a sandy beach and islands off-shore. We thought Rocky has made a good effort upgrading the waterfront with its lovely historic buildings. We stayed at Gladstone in the CBD which was a nice break, with a view across the industrial heartland! All in all it was a fantastic trip - time to plan the next one! Total Distance: 18,183km!
