Cania Gorge - 28/11/12 to 03/12/12

Cania Gorge was the holiday we had at the end of the holiday. We knew from here we would be heading home (after visiting the grandparents in Toowoomba) so we wanted somewhere to do as little as possible in the way of sightseeing and just take it easy for a few days. Cania Gorge fit the bill nicely and we had heard a lot about it and had wanted to check it out for some time.

Our visit there turned out to be a good choice. It is a fabulous park, well set up for a good family fun filled holiday. The most impressive thing is the water park with three pools, a water slide and a water fun park. Next best thing, as far as the boys were concerned, was the jumping pillow. They had a great time there and were back and forwards from the van to the water park and the jumping pillow about four or five or more times a day. In addition the park has a small golf course, runs movie nights on Wednesdays and Saturdays, has a pizza night on Saturday and does bird feeding every afternoon. You can also do walks in the nearby gorge and go fishing and boating on the dam which is about 2 km up the road. We managed to do all of this with the exception of going boating and fishing on the dam. We did check it out though.


One of the many birds that visited us soon after we set up camp. It would seem they try out all the new arrivals to see what success they can get with being fed.

All lining up for feeding time, which is at 5.00pm every day


Being visited by one of the local kookaburras. We thought this was pretty cool until he came back the next night and pinched some food from under our noses as we were having dinner.



In the pool / water park at the caravan park. Did the boys enjoy this!?

A special moment, the final emptying of "the box of wee".  To explain further, I have the cassette from our caravan toilet and this is the last time I have to take it to the dump point and empty it.

Boys in the outdoor studio recording a video cllip. I heard it - not sure that there is any future here. Best they go back to school and study hard.
