After four nights at Red Cliff Campground, our next stop was Binna Burra in Lamington National Park, Queensland. By the end of the weekend at Red Cliff, we were about the only campers left, but here are a couple of associated stories.

It seems to have been a while since my last post, but now that we have arrived at Red Cliff Campground for five nights, I have some time to bring you up to date with our travels (and tackle some other admin matters).

Add to this the further layer of the on-going rain event that has prevailed on the east coast during the past two months and we are having to go into a lot of detail and make bookings that in some cases are more than two months away.
