Oops yes Ayre Peninsula.  

My daughter, who is currently travelling around Aust in a camper van, is having trouble dragging herself away from SA.  

So jealous🥰 The best way to see our country.

Yep, they were both reasons.  We also saw Airlie after the last big cyclone and it was pole-axed.  

We also decided a nearby major airport and cruise port were important. 😀 

My wife's from bayside Brisbane and her family is all in SE Qld.  

Property prices were reasonable on Bribie 6 years ago and we sold our house in Sydney.  Have not looked back.  

Sounds like good timing for your shift to Bribie Island, ahead of the crowd.  I agree close to a major airport  and cruise port are important features.

I came up from Melbourne for a three month stay, and then went back to Melbourne.

To pack up the house sell everything It need and hightailed it back to Brisbane, that was about 26 years ago. Never looked back.

Sorry I've got to say it "Beautiful one day Perfect the next"😛
