Chased by the storms

We experienced the edge of the massive storm that swept throught the south east corner of Queensland last evening. The storm smashed Bogabilla and Goondiwindi before sweeping through to the Gold Coast. We were lucky that the worst of the storm passed to the south of us and that we wern't caught up in it.

The next morning we woke up to not a cloud in the sky with predictions is was going to be a stinking hot day.



We passed though the townships of Blackbut, Nanango, Gayndah, Mundubberah, Eidsvold, Minto and pulled into Biloela at about 3pm - hot and sweaty. It was 36C when we pulled into the motel :(

No trip through Gayndah is complete without a picture of the giant orange.

There were more storms in the south east corner this evening but they are all to the south of us now so all we can look forward to is more very hot days!
