We only stayed one night in Rockhampton. The caravan park was very crowded and right on the highway, so we went to the coast to Byfield National Park. This area was closed to the public when we lived in Rockhampton as it was part of the Shoalwater Bay Army Land. We had been to the township of Byfield, but that's all. We went first to Sandy Point which is a noted bird breeding ground, but the tide was in and we didn't see any waders. We then went to the campground at Upper Stoney Creek, which was just delightful, although it was in a pine plantation forest, but a beautiful swimming hole and lovely atmosphere. It rained on and off lightly all day, but it was OK. We had chicken casserole in the camp oven for dinner.
Thank you Zoeluma for your delightful letter.
