Yeppoon – Gladstone

Caught up again with Delwyne for a little shop around the very trendy group of shops in Yeppoon before heading to the Marina for lunch. Had a great time catching up with Delwyne and looking forward to visiting her house in a couple of days.

Headed on the not so picturesque drive to Gladstone. Past more coal mines, tucked away behind lovely bush from the road. Gladstone is a large mining town, also with the appearance of the gold boom influence in earlier years. There wasn’t enough to keep us there as the mining side of things seem to have a strong hold of everything in the town.

Had a nice dinner at the yacht club before retiring for the night at the top of the tourist lookout overlooking the port. Sadly the port didn’t stop all night long, so didn’t get a great nights’ sleep, but there were nice toilets and facilities at the top of the hill and a lovely walk to have in the morning when we woke up.
