Queensland...the sunshine state
Last weekend we went camping on the white sand island of Fraser. We joined a group of 8 and rented a fully equipped jeep. Driving the jeep on the sand is much like driving in the snow so Ryan didn't have any problems when he gave it a go. Some of the roads through the island were a bit rough though, I will be happy not to be in a bumpy jeep ever again. The camping was fun, we cook food on the BBQ, we drank and got to know our new friends. The beaches were amazing! We saw wild dingos and there were lots of bugs. The island had many fresh water lakes. The water was crystal clear and the white sand beaches were beautiful. The best part was the stars, it was indescribable. It was like the planetarium, from the horizon of the sea to the tops of the trees, the sky was filled with stars. We chilled on the beach at night, listened to the surf and stared at the sky.
We are now in Airlie staying at Beaches hostel awaiting our 3 day sailing trip. Our hostel has a pool, a bar and bistro and is a 2 minute walk to the beach. We actually got up and went running this morning, yes, Ryan came too. It was short and hot.
More updates and photos when we return from sailing!
