Fraser was great, but last time at Easter for us, just to give an idea, we arrived at Eli creek at about 9.30, set up and within an hour this is what it was like, the vehicle went around the corner maybe another 100 or so meters,  I have never seen this many people here before, wow - was good to people watch for a while, but decided to head into lake Mackenzie, car park was chockers not one space and many people parked in, about 3 tag along tours with 6 or 7 vehicles loaded with 6 - 8 people was simply way crowded for us.

that pic above is why we don't go to Fraser during holiday periods....Fraser is beautiful, but it's not my idea of a nice place to visit when it's like that.

8 Days, lucky bugger, wish we had that long there, is a long way to travel for only 4 nights, which is all we could manage this time around, where abouts are you camping

Have to agree 100%, but was the only time we could all get there this time, work gets in the way of fun, must be a better way

Dundabara mate. We have small kids, so prefer the safety of the gated campsite. Otherwise I would be up the top end somewhere.

Just in case anyone is interested in what the weather is like on Teewah beach this morning, here's a picture of our campsite for the next week or so, you know the weather is good when it's not even 8am and the 120w panels are putting in 5A.

hmm, looks good - might have to hitch up our 'controversial' camper and head there next weekend (if the rain holds off)
