Ok so we have now arrived at our last stop on our Oz experience tour, time goes so fast! We booked ourselves into Gilligan's as some people we had met from Whitsunday's were also there. The first day we all just chilled by the pool and booked our diving/snorkelling for the following day - the boat was great and we went to Michaelmas Cay and Paradise reef, we also hired a camera and took pics throughout the day. Snorkelling we saw large clams, a stingray (but it...

Helloooooooooooo - ok so we have no come to the end of our Oz bus tour up the East Coast :-(We have arrived in Cairns (this blog is a few days late) after Magnetic and Mission Beach. Not much to report about either - the weather on Magnetic wasn't so good (think i'm still still jinxed from Marbella Myers and Bud Bud!!!) which really effected the activities available, we managed to get there for the full moon but shouldn't have bothered really as it was nothing co...

Ok so after a long drive we finally arrived in Airlie beach. We confirmed all our details for our Whitsunday sailing and got ourselves ready or the following day. We left Airlie beach around 1ish and they had lunch waiting for us, our boat was Wings 3 which is apparently the newest boat in the harbour - it has a hot tub, widescreen TV, slushie machine (only boat that does!) and me and Dave had booked a double bed which gave us alot more space then normally avail...

I really wasn't looking forward to the Cattle Station as I knew they do something called a goat rodeo which i really didn't fancy - you also have to pay a local payment as its a compulsory stop. Dave wanted to see something other then beach so decided to go rather then book the greyhound around it. We arrived at the Cattle Station and was served steak for lunch which was nice but as I knew it had not long before been running around right where I was I couldn't e...

Ok so after Fraser we headed to 1770 - we was told it was nice there and booked 3 nights - it was nice to chill out but we was originally going to book 5 so glad we didn't as 3 nights was more then enough. On our first day us girls went on a free tour that they put on for the backpackers and it takes you to certain look outs around the island - 1770 is a shared town with Agnes Waters and Agnes Waters only has about 69 residents which probably explains the inbree...
