Hot One Day, Even Hotter The Next...

Record high temperatures throughout much of Queensland yesterday, even hotter forecast in places today. Time for another drive around in an air-conditioned car...

This time we headed south along the motorways until we got to Nambour where then retraced yesterday's route to Mapleton. No stopping there today as we kept on driving south along the edge of the ridge until we arrived in Maleny for lunch...not quite yesterday's standard but close!

Not wanting to go to Kenilworth again, after lunch we set off along some back roads to wind our way down to the coast via Peachester, Lansborough and Eudlo. Unlike yesterday where much of the driving was through forest, today was through farm land...still very pretty and much better than baking in the sun in 42C.
