Woke up to heavy drizzle and decided to take our time packing up. Before we knew it was 9-30 and we still had not had breakfast. Anyway we left the free camp in the rain and we arrrived and Kurrimine Beach at around 11-30. It was still very overcast and quite cold. Anyway someone was looking after us, we missed the turning for Kings Reef Caravan Park and turned right at the junction of the road where we came across the Council Caravan Park near the boat ramp. We noticed that it was only $21 for a powered site, with water as opposed to $38 at Kings Reef so we decided we would stay at the Council Park. It is quite basic but we have a concrete slab and the facilities, although quite old, are kept clean. We have a great view of the beach (if only the sun would shine). We went for a long walk around Kurrimine Beach in the afternoon and looked at the other caravan parks, and we are quite pleased with what we have got here in comparison to the others. We will probably stay here for four nights. Kurrimine Beach did suffer some damage during the recent cyclones but the locals seem to think that it has helped as all the old houses were damaged and have had to be replaced. It is quite a nice area and there is a lovely old Chapel which belongs to the motel next door. Apparently you can get married there and you get a discount on the reception at the motel. It is only used for church services about twice a month. Not much else here so I think it will be four days rest and relaxation.
