Brisbane Rest Day

Werner got told to take his hat off as he went inside the casino and ask some information



A walking bridge crossing from Southbank into the City



These guards been put up to protect the roots coming down from the branches



Werner standing next to the roots that have already made it to the ground



African Sausage Tree, what an unusual tree

Brisbane Rest day

Ipswich CG, which will be good to leave



Not far from where we are camping. Its a wadding pool in Wynnum



Bridge into Brisbane, photo was taken on the bus



Looking from the Southbank into the city



Spent time walking along the foreshore at Southbank

To Ipswich

Leaving Warwick and our nice camp kitchen



On my way out of Warwick this was one of three big churches I passed.



10 km done and still another 106 km to get to Ipswich today with rain clouds around.



It was coffee time before a climb up to the top of Cunningham Gap which goes up to 728 m



At the top was a beautiful bush walk to a lookout. At the bottom of the hill it was farmland then suddenly it changed into a beautiful sub topical rain Forrest.




At the top you can lookout over the valleys of Fassifern



This place was amazing



Now it was time for the steep descent which I know Werner is going to enjoy



At Aratula there was this lovely bakery and Werner just needed more calories to get him through the rest of today's ride



Werner just finishing today's ride of 117km on the out skirts of Ipswich where we will put the bike on the back and find a camp ground. Then tomorrow we will go closer into Brisbane and spend a few days sight seeing

To Warwick

The weather looked ok on this side of town before we left this morning



Leaving on the other side of Tenterfield it was a different story thick fog everywhere



Can see how far away we are from Brisbane and Warwick, which is our destination for today



Soon the fog lifted and disappeared and the blue sky was back again



The fence indicates the border of NSW and QLD



I had so much fun playing on the tractor, just like Isabel, until Werner arrived



Sure enough he wanted to have a turn too, I should have known



Arriving in Warwick QLD feels strange as we used to live in Warwick in WA



Werner is taking a well earned rest after cycling 117 km today

Happy 60th Birthday Vreni

Getting the hats ready



A BIG 60



Happy Birthday Vreni

To Tenterfield

We parked and slept beside this playground in Deepwater



Werner just coming over another crest



Getting up on the BBQ table to take a photo of " What is Life "



And here is what it said

To Tent Hill

Lots of Spider webs lining the side of the road past Glen Innes



The turn off towards Tent Hill just before Deepwater



Werner biking down the narrow road towards Tent Hill



Here we are in Tent Hill, where we will visit Bernie's Aunties and Nana



Judy, me and Carmel



Showing Bernie's Nana some photos of Isabel her Great Granddaughter. She will be celebrating her 97th Birthday on the 27th November



Werner loading the bike on the van before we are heading off to Emmaville



Looking at all the amazing rocks in the Museum



Visiting the old Arsenic Mine site



Werner possing on the way up to the Thunderbolt Lookout



I'm putting the camera away so I can use both hands to get up these stairs



But the view at the top was worth the hard work



So we had a rest and enjoyed the view

To Glen Innes

A line of fog hanging about as we left Guyra



Past this very nice looking pub called Red Lion,shame it was closed for renovations



Nice autumn colours on the trees ahead of me



Entrance to the town of Stonehenge and entering Celtic Country



I can see the beginning of Glen Innes
