After Peter’s birthday in May 1988 we went by train to Murwillumbah. We had a sleeper compartment on the overnight train. Our new car, the Nissan Pulsar GL, went with us on the train!
Caroline took this picture of us after we had arrived in Muwillumbah.Caroline liked that our train had had a dining car!
From Muwillumbah it was not far to Queensland. Our destination was Brisbane. At the time there was the 1988 EXPO in Brisbane. We had booked accommodation very close to the EXPO. There was heaps to see for us at this EXPO. A few days later our car took us to Queensland’s Sunshine Coast.
Here we stopped our car to have a look at the Glasshouse Mountains.
We stayed in a cabin on the Sunshine Coast. There was a swimming pool. The water was rather cool. But Caroline dared to go into it for a bit.
We visited the Big Pineapple Farm. There was a Bamboo Forest close by.
Caroline seems to enjoy farm life.This “Castle” is at the Sunshine Coast. We stopped there for some pictures.
This is near the border to New South Wales on our way back.Martin, Liz and Tristan lived in this house in Tamworth at the time.
We stopped there to say Hello.
It looks like both Caroline and Tristan love to help in the kitchen.

I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com
