Title: Newbie... G-day from Gladstone QLD!
Post by: Mel87 on July 16, 2011, 09:37:49 AM: Hello all!

New to My Swag. I have a 2010 Nissan Navara D40 ST-X, 2011 Jayco Eagle Outback & 2007 Koala Soft Floor Camper Trailer. The Eagle is currently being built, will be finished September. I want to know favourite camping spots around CQ- Bris way!

:cheers:

Lots of active members around Brisbane and plenty of good places to go, not to mention folks to go with if you're keen to meet like minded campers.

Post by: Mel87 on July 16, 2011, 10:35:31 AM: Thanks to all for the warm welcome ;D. Yes love CQ weather, first trip in September (same weekend we pick up) the eagle will be to Woodgate so we can take the little dog with us & get used to the new toy. Then in October for a week we have planned a trip to Fraser with a group of 5 cars, looking forward to dipping the nav & eagle in the sand for the first time!

Black Diamond- Myswag has made my day, I have so many ideas ready to go! I will most surely upload pictures of the Eagle when I get it & photos from our first trip (wont be very exciting as we are just taking it easy for the first one & going to a park near Bundaberg). I do have lots of photos to share of our travels in our soft floor.

Welcome to the forum.
Very useful for getting out & about.

We are also looking for places in CQ for good places to camp & have a good look around the area.

If you ever venture in the Townsville Region look us up for some places to visit.
