Oz Experience day seven - on to Airlie Beach

Tuesday (the 9th that is) was our longest day of driving yet, with about nine hours in the bus in total. We drove first back to the coast, then headed north to Raglan, where we picked up our lunch for the day. We then continued to Rockhampton and then on to Sarina for an afternoon session of lawn bowls. It might seem a strange thing to do on a backpackers'bus, but it broke up the day nicely and gave us something to try which many of us hadn't done before. After that break, we were off to Airlie Beach, arriving at about 7.30pm. It certainly wasn't the most exciting day, but at least it was a rare one in the sense that it included so much driving.
