Week 3 (cont) - Sunshine Coast - Tingoora

An overnight stay at the Liau's (thankyou Ben and Ange!!) then the Powell's finally left the coast and believe it or not discovered "Jesus Country" (more on that later).

Our neighbours at camp.

Campsite - no power, no water and no amenities!!!!
 
And more cows

Cody hanging amongst cows too long - here trying to be one.

And the result - "MUD MONSTERS"- Arrgggghhhh
More Mud Monsters

 
Cody's cleansing


During our stay on the farm, we learned that our campsite was in the centre of a large cross clearing supposedly marking the second coming of Jesus (aka AJ Miller - see www.aj-miller.com).  Note in actual fact this land is owned by friends of Ben and Ange who have nothing to do with this cult although they are negotiating it's sale.
