Day 4 Hervey Bay

Mick is off collecting the car.Needed a new compressor but thankfully not radiator as well.
We have extended our time in Hervey Bay because it was such a big push to get here and we have such a beautiful spot overlooking the bay. The weather is superb as it would be in Brissy ( but not in Sydney, I've heard...)and the temperature is perfect for the kids to spend hours on the beach.Sam had a playmate until this morning and the replacement neighbours have been travelling for 8 years. Should prove a font of knowledge.
 Everyone is very friendly and helpful. Our other neighbours just gave us some whiting fillets for tea.( caught today)
We went whale watching yesterday and while we did see whales, they were pretty quiet and did not put on the displays that occur later in the season. Still, we can tick that one off...
We plan to stay until fri morning and free camp near Moura then arrive in Carnarvon on Sat. Booked there for 3-4 nights.
