Wednesday...13 May 2015

So after spending the night illegally camping outside the fix it shop on the Gold Coast, we handed the caravan over yesterday morning to have the roof fixed "again". Then we found a caravan park cabin to spend the next two nights in....right next to and hard up against the M1 motorway AND at the end of the runway approach to the Gold Coast Airport! Boy oh boy, we sure can pick em!!!! To be fair the cabin is cosy and has every thing needed but nothing could insulate us from the surrounding noises. Loud. Constant. Horrific. Just when we convinced ourselves the motorway would settle down after peak hour along came the southbound trucks roaring through the night. Exhaustion eventually allowed us to fall asleep but we needed no alarms clocks, several city flyer early morning flights took care of that little detail in our weary lives! And we get to do it all again today and tonight. Will definitely be finding somewhere else to stay if the van takes longer than quoted!
