G'day Mate! So, our last blog left you hanging as we were making our way to Surfers Paradise where we arrived early afternoon and made our way straight to the bus to Coolangatta where Neil and Peihua were there to meet us and take us to their house in Tweed Heads for an overnight stay. The car journey took us down the coast and we were amazed with the views which were stunning. We had a couple of hours to chill out before we headed out for dinner, after a few ...

G'day Mate! We arrived back in Brisbane on Saturday afternoon where we were met by Maddie and Sam at the train station. After three days of camping we were looking forward to returning to Wynnum for some more home comforts! We spent the rest of the day chilling out, chatting to the Langthorne's about our Fraser Island trip and doing our washing.

We had a lovely big room with ensuite, something ...

G'day Mate! We awoke early, this time on the right day, ready for our boat trip to the Whitsunday Islands. We had checked out of Nomads by 10am and strolled over the road to check into our boat trip before 11am, where we then had a four hour wait until we had to board our boat at 3.40pm. We killed some time on the internet for a couple of hours and then played some frisbee by the lagoon until it was time to go! When we got to the check-in for 'New Horizon' we sa...
