We met up with our friend Yael in the morning who we knew from Fraser Island as she was on our Whitsunday's boat we were going on today. Yael brought a Welsh girl called Danielle along who she had met in the hostel and was also coming on our boat. We went to a liquor store to stock up for our trip as there was no alcohol sold on the boat. We decided to grab a taxi down to the harbour, although we were only allowed to take small bags with us, we weren't sure how ...

Wednesday 10th February. Although I wasn't properly asleep, we were woken up about 2am for a supposed 30 minute break at a services and to swap drivers. The current driver told us McDonald's was open across the road so me Kirsty and Julia walked over.

We went back to the pe...

On the way back to pick our laundry up we saw the Swedish guys from our Fraser Island group, Emil Emil, Seb, Max and Paulina. We stopped to chat to them and they were saying they were heading to some survival trip wh...

We wanted to walk to Bustard bay to watch the sunset but realised it was too far to walk to, so we lay on the beach and watched ...

Sunday 7th February. I was woken up at 7:30am by my roomies who had gone to get free pancakes at 7am from the hostel. Kirsty told me they weren't very good though so I don't think I missed anything. Emilio was saying he was literally going to wake me up to go with them, but Kirsty quickly warned him not to wake me up haha. Me and Kirsty checked out then went and grabbed breakfast at a cafe round the corner which was really busy. Then we took a walk to the beach....
