The town of 1770

We were feeling a bit crap and sore after the madness of the Whitsundays so we really needed a rest which was not helped by a horrible over night bus from Airlie Beach.

But we arrived in the small town of 1770, North of Bundaberg, so called as this was the year Captain Cook first set foot in this area. Our hostel was in a large ranch about 5 minutes drive from the beach and it had two massive doggies!

One was called Scoobie but we don't know the name of his sister or girlfriend. The hostel also had a cat called Shadow and a nice horse which looked very sad. The town is basically a beach and a few shops and you really feel cut off from everything.

We just chilled in 1770 for a few days and Dave took some surf lessons and was really good at it, (Chris couldn't do it because of her sore arm). The beach at 1770 is the most northern surf beach on the East coast. The Internet here is shit so we don't know when our photos will be uploaded. Poo.
