smooth sailing

Day 3 - Tuesday 26th August 2014
Dalby to Hervey Bay
day's total  419.3 kms

The beast has been behaving and running smoothly today… (after getting its old tyres put back on).

A school visit in Kumbia  -
Princess Ailssa and Oliffe were there…the kids just loved us….lucky Oliffe didn't melt!

 the kids lined up to play in the car and operate the siren...

 Excitement on the track … and the FJ Holden catches fire!!

All the plastic bits melted...

The boot was unpacked in a hurry...

 Lunch at Goomeri and the pit crew go to work on the FJ … needles to say it was up and running again and made it to Hervey bay.

 A little bit of circle work! ..Not me at the wheel.. this time!

The Bat mobile also made a recovery and was back on track .. even if its radiator is held together with putty…and the bull bar is a little bent!

This is a bush to beach trek … so Mr Rally Driver and I get ready for the beach!

complete with surfboard..

 Chanel 7 came to film us...

And we made the news…

 It was party night at Hervey Bay - a 1970's 1980's theme….
the scary thing is.. I could just grab something out of the wardrobe!.. And I really had hair like this in 1980 (only not blond!!)… Mr floss had hair too!!

 Jake and Elwood were there...

Lots of great outfits…Batman and Robin looked a little different

It was a laugh!

cheers
