Hello, sorry we haven't written for ages been soooo busy. Ok here goes.
29th June Tuesday - We got on the bus to 1770 but had to sit seperately which we were gutted about! Arrived at 1770 and hopped straight onto the scooteroo, which we had booked. We were kitted out with leathers and helmets and a motor bike, then we set off in convoy of about 40 bikers on a two hour ride. We stopped off in 1770 to watch the sun set and eat wedges (very nice) then headed back. Really enjoyed this, was a little bit scary but really good. On our way back to the hostel one guy jumped on the bus and said to us all that he was having an after party at the only bar in 1770! was so funny, an after party after a few hours of riding a bike!!!!! Anyway we went, me and Rach don't miss a party! We met Phil and gary in there who we first saw at Noosa, crazy as this was the only bar in 1770 and it was pretty quiet, anyway, spent a long time chatting with them then made our way back the hostel.
30th June Wednesday - Set off to Kroombit today which is a cattle station in the outback. We arrived at lunch time, checked in and bought our cowboy hats and bandanners (true cow girls). We went horse riding and had to muster goats, which was really good, whilst shouting some stupid thing like hmm bababa. We then were taught how to lassoo a goat, we practiced first then got in teams of three, one had to lasoo the goat (me) one had to tip the goat on its back (Roxy) and the other had to brand it (rachel) only pretend though. Anyway the guy told us which goat we had to get out of about 20 and due to my amazing lassooing techniques we got the quickest team and won, yey!!! knew i should have been a cowgirl. We then stood in a circle and played circle of fire, where basically you all hold hands and he sends an electric shock right through you all, much fun. We had tea then learnt how to crack a whip, i got a bloody blister, trying to hard! Then it was time to ride the mechanical bull neither me or rach lasted very long, was good though. We sat round the fire and chatted then went to bed. This was defo one of mine and Rach's favourite days.
1st July Thursday - Early start this morning, we headed to Airlie beach and had a stop on the way in a place called Sarina to play bare foot bowls (very random). We played games on the bus and did kareoke, nipples our bus driver was amazing he sang spice girls, if you wana be my lover, but he sand "slam your nipples down and wind them all around" was soooooo funny, he well got into it, defo mine and Rach;s fave bus driver, and we told him this! Arrived at Airlie beach and met our oz bus friends for tea, we had fish and chips (child size) so we also ordered wedges (fatties!!!) We then checked out the party scene in Airlie beach.
2nd July Friday - We left at 2 to walk to where they were meeting us for our Whit Sundays trip, however we were sat in the wrong place. When we got there in plenty of time we boarded the boat Boomerang and met our fellow boaties for the next 3 days, 3 of which were absolutely steaming!!! we set sail and stopped of at our frist location, it was pretty cloudy, however you cant miss a chance to swim in Aussie sea so me the three lads (drunks!) and Becs jumped in, it was rather warm. After this we had our tea and the drinking commenced. We sat mainly with the guys on the boat, three of the drunks, who turned out to be our fave people on the trip Jacob, Tommy and Hobs (SHAAATTTT APPPP) they were Aussie boys. Hobs just basically told everyone to SHAAAT APPP all night, was so funny. We went to bed in our hole! basically it was a hole at the end of the boat, was very cosy though.
3rd July Saturday - early start this morning and set sail to Whitehaven beach. walked to the beach after spotting turtles in the sea, we went for a dip and a walk which was lovely then headed back to the boat in time for dinner. Whilst on the beach we had a full body exfoliation and cleaned our rings, the sand is 90% silicon so its amazing, feels like sugar. We then headed to our next stop and on the way saw Whales breeching in the sea, amazing sight, we went snorkling which was great then it was time for goon again! Good night, very windy, sat up top with all the lads. When on my way to bed, there was me and Tommy and Freddy left on deck, i felt this wet splash on my face, and just thought it was the sea, however when i turned round Freddy was having a wee off the side of the boat up wind, so i got bloody wee in my face! i obviously screemed, which then Tommy who also got wet started shoating too, was disgusting but very funny, we dived downstairs to disinfect our faces (ewww).
4th July Sunday - Another early start, stopped of to dive in the water off the boat, then sailed our way home, it was amazing, the boat was proper tipped on its side and we all had to sit on the high side, however Jordan spewed as he had a hangover, lovely! we arrived back on dry land and headed back to our hostel. We all met up that night for tea and lots of drinks. Me, Rach and all the boys headed to a few bars and a club, amazing night. Loved Whit Sundays, Tommy, Hobs and Jacob defo made it, sad we wont see them again!
