Trip report, Levuka reconnaissance
This weekend we decided to head to Levuka for a bit of a warm up for Fraser and reconnaissance for a site to hold Brass Monkey III which might be held at the end of July this year, and unlike the Fraser Island Fishing and Drinking Expo 2006, we hope to attract many women to come and enjoy all that the outdoors has to offer (hot showers and flushing toilets!).
Brendan, Andrew, Leigh and myself were the only people that bothered to go, we were missing the Head Monkey himself who decided not to go at the last minute leaving us in doubt if there will actually be a Brass Monkey III event this year.
The camping sites are very nice, and there is cattle in the camp sites so there’s a lot of land mines about, which are slippery when wet, so take a shovel :)
We had driven through some storms that left a bit of mud around, so the rainforest tracks were nice and wet, we managed to do some recoverys to get past this little bit which was surprisingly deep and off camber at the exit.
Enough with the mud there was a lot of nice scenery there.
And we ended up cooking a whole leg of lamb, which turned out a treat :)
IP’s photos are up HERE. I have left a few HERE.
Mmmmmm the roast looks yummo!! I heard lots of stories about it from Bren. Thought there was at least 10 people there from the sounds of the roast!
