A couple of weeks back , and the main reason we came to Gympie, we put the van into the dealer to have the suspension changed over to a local suspension. While it was in overnight we had to find somewhere else to sleep so we went for a drive into the Sunshine Coast hinterland and spent the day exploring Imbil, Kenilworth, Maleny and surrounding areas, eventually winding up at Maroochydore where we spent the night in a hotel/motel on the Maroochy River. I didn’t get as many photos of this area as I should have, it’s really lovely.
The following day we went to the Ginger Factory at Yandina and spent a lovely few hours doing a couple of tours, having lunch, checking out the products for sale and wandering around the tropical gardens. It was really good, and we got lots of photos of the ginger flowers and other sub tropical plants.
