Sunshine Coast

Karen thinks the beach is great!

Last week we took a mini break to the Sunshine Coast. This part of the coast is around 3 hours drive from Toowoomba & approximately 1.5 hours from Brisbane.

The Sunshine Coast is full of sandy beaches & lush green mountainous areas 20 minutes in from the coastline. This is called the Hinterland.

We stayed in a village called Maleny, which is well up in the Hinterland. We rented a lovely little old worker's cottage arround the corner from Maleny centre.

We made it to the beach. The weather was nice & warm (30 celsius).

The Big Pineapple. They actually grow pineapples!
