Another extremely early start to drive south from the Sunshine Coast to Brisbane Airport via very heavy traffic. A relatively short  three hour flight to Cairns followed then off to the hotel.

After settling in and confirming our hockey meetings over the next two days we were collected by Abbie who used to live in our village in England to take us for dinner with her family. And her parents, who still live in our village, were there too!

And to demonstrate further how small the World is, our poster girl Ann is the mum of Abbie’s best friend.
