BOAT DAY! We checked out of Beaches today and prepared for our Whitsundays boat trip aboard SV Whitehaven. Of course we stocked up on the GOON and started the trip. I was just slightly aprehensive when I saw the boat (!) but we all got on and sorted out. Our bedroom was miniscule and the beds even miniscule-er! I also nearly choked to death when I saw the toilet/shower. First of all it stand and the shower was basically on top of the loo. Anyway it really wasnt t...

I woke up a little late today because of the footie and decided to spend the day chilling in Airlie. Its a lovely town and I really like it here. Again, its right on the beach and has lots of cool little shops and restaurants. The weather was really nice today aswell which made a massive difference. I checked out the shops and chilled by the lagoon and beach. I went for a run too and am now about to pack for our Whitsundays boat trip starting from tomorrow until ...

We left good old Kroombit today to make our way to Airlie Beach on a 10 hour coach journey. It was possibly the most boring day our of the whole trip; so nothing much to report back on I'm afraid!

The ******** on the door wouldn't let us in. We couldnt believe it, it was a 3am lockout...

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! We caught the Oz Bus to Kroombit today - a cattle ranch in the middle of nowhere; I can't explain how remote this place is; we drove for two hours and didn't see A THING. NOT ONE SINGLE THING. Anyway we arrived at Kroombit at about 1430 and it was really surreal. We checked into our little stable-like-rooms and were taken up the road for our cattle-station-activities! On the way up we were speaking to one of the girls who works there; she li...

GOOD MORNING CAMPERS! OUR LAST DAY ON FRASER! I woke up in pain and tired again as it chucked it down ALL night. Alex even woke up in a pool of water. Anyway it didn't matter because we were on the beach and it was absolutely beautiful. Oh, I forgot to mention on the first night; we layed on the beach and watched the stars (how romantic!) and it was out of this world. The stars here are completely different to home! Seriously! Anyway, we spent most of today sunni...
