We ended up staying in Brisbane for 5 nights. Which was cool because there was a fair bit for us to do! They have a man made beach on the river front which is really cool just to chill out for an afternoon. We met up with our friend again who we trekked it to the outback with Kristy. We had an afternoon of free sailing which our hostel organised which ended up us being crew in this race just off the coast of Brisbane, The yauht was called Double or nothing and...

We left Rainbow Beach and arrived in a small town called Noosa which was such a beautiful place, we were staying just near the river and the beach wasnt far from us either. We went to Australia Zoo whilst there, the home of Steve Irwin and his family. Had such a good day, we saw loads of australian wildlife like Wombats, The Tasmanian Devil, Crocs, Kangaroo's and the best of all Koala's. The Kangaroo pen was really good because it was a large open area so we coul...

We travelled down then coast to Townsville and then went inland from there as it was pretty much the only sealed road we could travel on!! the weather seemed to get mu...

Port Douglas is a very nice and wealthy place, everything is pretty pricey there!! This was the nearest place we could go when we had days off from Silky Oaks so we would head down there to the beach and into town, to watch some olympics or just to get back into Civilisation. A few people we were working with have stopped off there to continue working and then we might be travelling together again!! We had endless amounts of fun on the beach when there was a lot ...
