Farewell Fine Friends (Or Bye Bye Beerwah and Belinda)

  
We really enjoyed our time in Beerwah. Its a lovely town, with fabulous artworks right through. Check out the wall of the local Target store:



We went to the Eumundi markets, which was more to Lexies liking than all the animal things. We stopped past the Buderim Ginger Factory and spent an hour or so wandering around there. It can be incredibly expensive if you pay for all the options, but we limited ourselves to a ride on the train and a cool down in the air conditioning of the little stores.




  
All too soon it was time to move on though.

We had a great last nights dinner with the guys at the Beerwah Sportsground. We had Marty, Belinda, Charlotte and Meg, Bronwyn, John, Brendan and Monique (Mog), Adrian, Lisa and Jake and us. Quite a crowd! We had a BYO BBQ with everyone providing salads and desserts. Dunc had dashed off to meet up with an old friend, so missed the laughs and yummy food, but the rest of us enjoyed it!





And then it was departure day and I made a very late realization that THIS farewell to Belinda and Marty was rather more final than the others had been. We would not be catching up soon. We would not be running into them further down the road. With hugs and tears we bid farewell and headed off. It all got a little bit real and I didnt like it one little bit!
