Eungella National Park and the way to the south

We stayed overnight in this natural campsite.



The National Park

It was not so dangerous driving down to the south as it was signed...

Very original idea to use a microwave as a mailbox :) It wasn't the only one we have seen :)
Noosa Beach, beautiful beaches are everywhere in Queensland...
