From Goomeri

We left the bus and jumped in the Suzi, having  decided to do a drive and end up at the German Bakery, 25kms out of town for lunch. and to visit Kimbombi Falls on the way.  The Info Lady told us that if we could climb down the 150 steps, there were lovely rock pools to wade in.   Well she was right, there were about 150 steps but that was that.   The pools were full of green stagnant water.   This place has been in drought so we didnt expect waterfalls but at least something pretty.     Half way there, and I remembered Id left my purse back at the bus.    No german lunch for us that day.   We ended up back at the bus eating cheese and crackers.   Probably better  for us anyway.      As we had to head that way on our way back in the bus, I told Rick we would stop when we got to the Bakery and I would buy a slab of Strudel.   When we got there, it was closed.   It was Tuesday and for some reason all of the 3 small town we had gone to, all closed for business on Tuesdays.  The only thing opened in each of these towns was the pub and servos.    It seems so strange to us, but Im guessing they get a better crowd thru the weekends and so need a day off at some stage.
