Murwillumbah is now behind us and we head to the north side of Brisbane . School holidays was upon us , so we found a spot to camp for a couple of weeks - Watson Park in Dakabin - it was a good price and we could use it as a base to visit friends and see some sights .
Arriving there just after 12 , we set up , had lunch & headed out to Deception Bay to go for a ride . We found the deceptive part - the water was missing 😂 - no it was low tide , and it was out about 150m .
There's a bike track that will get you out to Redcliffe & Scarborough , it follows the bay round till there's lots of mangroves , then goes back into suburbia . There's plenty of wetlands here .
The was a cactus plant growing up into a few trees beside the path , and it really likes to take over - bit like a weed !! It was nearly to the top of this 15m high tea tree .
And was going fairly high in the 2 gumtrees beside it .
There's plenty of green grass & mowed areas around the trees . Exercise equipment has been placed there as well , so you can go for a walk and some exercise as well .
Back to the ute , we were parked beside the boat ramp - you'd have to drive a long way out though !
Along the other end of the track , there's more parkland , chairs , tables & Bbq's , and all of it is very well used - it was monday afternoon and there were people everywhere , walking their dogs & entertaining the kids .
That was our day , here's a map link :- https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid=1GQtAiZLv7kD-neSYuCt6S-5vi8elD7w&usp=sharing
