Lucky me...I was invited to try out Railli Porter's Yurt at the weekend. She is getting it ready to hire out.
It poured a lot of the weekend which was a shame.
Railli is so kind and she offers free camping at her property too.

In Stony Creek Queensland. 9km west of Woodford and 67km north west of Brisbane at the mouth of the Bellthorpe National Park.

So much wildlife plus her curious goats. It was a great way to relax and chill out.

I decided to follow the "road" because a road has to go somewhere right.. after an hour or so coming across a sign saying I was going the opposite way I was wanting to go had to do a 6 point turn on a narrow, muddy mountain track in my little bettle. No wifi, map or water...Thinking it would be much easier in a 4x4... Thinking why do I do these things🤣.
Anyway, went back the way I came to find out it is recommended for 4x4's when I got a map from tourist info.
Woodford had a Sunday market and lovely places to eat.
Love the Sunshine Coast Hinterland. Thanks again Railli.

Day 1 yesterday..smooth drip flying from Brisbane. Blue Mountain train from Sydney was a pleasant 2 hour trip, they only charged us a dollar!? Airbnb beautiful. Everything we need and more. Little notes everywhere, fresh scones and cream plus freshly baked cookies. Walk to Laura Cascades and yum dinner at "The Polar Bear." Found some other places I will check out next time. "The Bunker" old and very fancy..stunning and "Madame Wang's" which was not open but looked like an old o***m smoking den but was a restaurant.

Things I was told about India that I have not found true so far...may be different in other parts but my observations so far.
1. Women must not travel on their own.
I have felt very safe and everyone has been very respectful. Obviously you need to be careful but not felt my belongings or self at risk.
2. There will be beggars and hawkers everywhere..
We were asked by some children in the car by the airport for some food and two have approached us on the beach but that's it..the regular paper guy and people selling necklaces a couple of times..
3. Crazy drivers...
yes some
4. You will be taken advantage off financially..
Most believe in good and bad karma, twice I have been let know that we have given them too much money. EDIT...3 times!
Broke my glasses and sunglasses and needed new screws. They would not take any money from me to repair them.
5. Wear a wedding ring as you will be harassed if you are not with a husband.
Only has to say that once so far.

Went to buy an esim before I left but my 0hone was not compatible. Left it too late to get a Sim delivered. Got a tuktuk for 150 rupees one way to Chaudi. Sim cost 550 ($10) for 1.5 gb everyday for 30 days. Need your passport, visa and 2 passport photos. That's the same price my carer would change for one day.

Lovely swim in the very warm ocean followed by another beautiful sunset dinner.
