Planning the Journey

Our next adventure will be back to Queensland. We are really looking forward to getting back to warmer places as winter has descended on Melbourne.


The plan is to kayak from Mackay, up through the Whitsundays, then continuing north, island hopping where there are islands and coming onto the coast in other areas. We will take dehydrated food but it is nice to come to shore occasionally for some fresh food. After a bit over 3 weeks we plan to arrive in Cairns.


Route planning is well under way. Campsites to book and later, meals to cook and dry. The main logistical exercise is the car shuffle - for Neil getting back to the car in Mackay while I stay in Cairns with the gear!
