We left Noosa about 9.30am for the drive to Brisbane. Arrived about noon. Another perfect day with cloudless sky's and temperatures about 26C. Brisbane is a lovely city. In the central area the streets are set out in a grid system and all the north south ones are male names and the east west are female names, so finding your way around is easy. There is also the very wide Brisbane River, where they run an efficient City Cat service. This is a fast Catamaran ...

After our early start for Frazer island yesterday we took things easy this morning. Again the sun was out and the sky was blue. We had a leisurely breakfast then Bill and Sue took us out in the car to show us the area. We drove south along the coast as far as Mooloobara where we stopped and had a coffee then returned to Noosa where we had a couple of hours on the beach. Pete was delighted as he was able to hire a body board, so he went in the surf for an hour. ...

The clock went off at 5.00am we got up,breakfasted and this amazing 4wheeled drive bus picked us up at the door. We were off to Frazer Island, the largest sand island in the world.

Woke up early this morning with a beautiful view from the unit across the ocean with the sun just coming up. As it was early I took the opportunity to speak to my sister who was getting ready for bed. We had intended to do nothing today, maybe sit on the beach and chill out. However, we walked all day. We walked around the local neighbourhood and looked at the houses then we walked the beach. It is a beautiful place Louise and Ross have found to live. They ...
