With all the trips we had booked on the east coast we got a free canoe trip in the Noosa Everglades. Noosa itself is very posh and everybody talks like the two characters from Kath and Kim that work in the shopping centre! We had a nice bunch of people on the trip, who all happened to be British. We camped in the national park for 2 nights. We canoed for 1 and a half hours to our campsite, Harry's Hut. The Noosa river is beautiful, it is also called the river of ...

We did our Fraser Island tour from Rainbow beach. This trip is done by nearly everyone that does the east coast, you hear so many good things about it, you just can't not do it. So we got on our Self drive 4x4 trip. We did the trip through our hostel Pippies. We had 7 people in our 4x4 and there were 8 in the other. Four of us could drive in our 4x4. We did a group trip to IGA (supermarket) and got a few boxes of Goon to last us out on the island. Then we were on...

We stayed at Myella Farm stay near Rockhampton for 2 days for a true Auzzie experience. We had heard lots of good things about Myella from fellow travellers and we weren't disappointed. The farm is family owned, and it has a nice cosy feel, a real home away from home. All the family make you feel really welcome. First up was a bit of horse riding after kitting up in our cowboy gear, I have never done horse riding before, and my first go didn't go too smoothly. I ...

Mission Beach was our starting point for our White water rafting on the Tully river. Straight away we were asked if we wanted to upgrade for free to the Extreme Rafting as they needed an extra 2 people on the rafts, so we did! There are 2 companies that raft the river which basically means during the day it turns into rush hour traffic at every rapid, but luckily with the extreme rafting we got to get on the river first. Basically you raft the same rapids as the ...

We had a relaxing week in Townsville, doing nothing but sit on the beach and chill out before we headed up to Cairns. Cairns is a really touristy town, it has a million tour booking places and lots of bars etc, but it's justified as there is so much to do here. We were a bit unlucky when we first arrived as the weather wasn't good for us. It was non-stop raining, we totally forgot how depressing the rain is (feel sorry for you guys). So we waited for a few days f...
