Date: 1st August 2011 Place: Airlie Beach Weather: Sunny and fairly warm Woke up again by the diesel engine. There wasn't a sunrise again and I didn't even bother looking for one. We had breakfast and were then heading back to the port because the boat had to be back at 9am. After breakfast we were all so tired that the guys and I had a nap for a few hours until we were almost back at Airlie Beach. When we got off we walked past loads of awesome boats a...

Date: 31st July 2011 Place: Airlie Beach - Whitsundays Weather: Sunny and windy again We were woken up this morning by what Kev called the diesel alarm clock aka the engine.

Date: 28th July 2011 Place: Kroombit Cattle Station Weather: Sunny and a decent temperature Had to wake up early again and sneak out; it seems to be routine now. Jumped on the computers and booked my flight home and emailed people to let them know I was still alive. Then got back on the bus with Yute. We stopped at Rockhampton where we swapped buses to go to the cattle station. As soon as we got there we had a BBQed steak which was obviously freshly cut...
