Day 9: Still itching all over we went for a walk. After we came back to the van, switched the fan on and laid there reading for a while. We then went to gladstone museum which was a load of tosh. Having had enough of the place we decided to move on again. We headed 1 and a half hours to Rockhampton 'The beef capital of Australia'. Just to give you some more inside information we have now changed the vans name to the more suitable 'Caracola' meaning Snail in Spanish. We came to this name as we are carrying our home on our back's (back of the van) and secondly at the speed in which we travel. We hold up so much traffic that every now and again we pull over to let them by. We have learned a new road language though, If the truckies tap there horn a few times it means that they are grateful that we pulled over, and if they keep there hand on the horn it means thank f**k for that. Rockhampton is a funny place, one street is beautiful with wide roads, old buildings then the next street is really tired-out with most of the shops closed. In the evening we went to the cinema to watch 'Funny People' then found a back street and slept. Honkkkkk-Honkkkkk!
