Got back on the bus still eating pizza from the night before - it really was `All you can eat`! Tom and Rodger were with us yet again, along with Vicki, who was to be with us for a while also! (not that that was a bad thing Vicki!) We were bound for the small town of 1770 - so named due to Captain Cook landing there, in you guessed in 1770! It is also the last place you can swim in the sea up the east coast, without a 100 percent chance of getting eaten alive or...

OK, so this is Fraser Island part 2. We awoke from our slumber a little later than had been previously hoped but never the less we had a whole day ahead of us to check out what the island really had to offer. Our first port of call was Indian Head, a large rocky part of the island high up and sticking out slightly giving some pretty impressive views. We arrived after a slightly hairy drive through the soft sands of the beach (a number of times seeming as if ...

Left Brisbane early Saturday morning, slightly dazed but glad to be on our way once more.

Finally, the adventure continues...(Apologies to all for the delay!) Got back on the bus, yet again with Foggy. Knew better this time, and we all headed straight for the back of the bus, not that it made too much difference, her jokes still reached our ears. First stop on the way, was Nimbin - Drug Capital of OZ. Started as a small hippy commune before slowly becoming the town that stands today - a very interesting community! Its home to the annual mardigras...

The time had arrived to finally become Surfers!!! Could it be done? Could 2 lads from the green hills of Surrey actually pass themselves of as true Aussie Surfers; only time would tell! First we had to survive the torturous Foggy (our new bus driver). First impressions weren't good - a)She was a woman (no offence!) b) She had short spiky dyed blond hair c) She cracked numerous jokes in the first 5 minutes of knowing her, each as unfunny as the last!
