Hi everyone! Just to let you know we have posted two blogs and photos (Whitsundays and Fraser Island) at the same time as we've had trouble downloading photos onto our blog - just don't want you guys missing anything!!! Since we last left you we'd been on a sailing trip round the Whitsunday Islands and then made our way by bus down to Hervey Bay which was our hopping off point for our 2 day, 1 night Fraser Island trip. Our bus arrived at 5.55 in the morning and l...

Hello all! After leaving Cairns we had a long coach journey southwards on the east coast to Airlee Beach. From here we were going on a 2 day sailing tour of the Whitsunday Islands the following day. On arrival to Airlee Beach we were amazed as to how built up it was. We thought it was going to be a really small town with a couple of shops and bars like on the west coast. Instead it kind of resembled Newquay with loads of bars, restaurants & fast food place...

After a long journey down from Monkey Mia we were exhausted so checked in to the hostel and went straight to bed.The following day we set off to ex...

Hello all! We arrived at Monkey Mia around 9am and managed to check straight into our hostel which was nice as we were only there for 2 days so didn't want to waste half of one of those days waiting to check in. On booking in we found out that we were sharing a room with Michelle (English) and Harry (Dutch) who we had met on the bus. After a much needed shower, some breakfast, and a look around the resort the four of us & another girl who we had met on the ...
