We got the free breakfast and despite intending to visit Noosa Heads beach again but the weather was bad! We drove south a little and saw some crazy surfing so stopped to look. We walked along the beach for a bit, struggled to get back to the car and carried on. We drove only like 150km, but stopped at McDs for the toilet, but it was half price lunch menu...so we got an early lunch. We arrived in Brisbane at like midday and found our hostel easily despite the ...

I'm ashamed to say I left writing this blog a week late and can't quite remember everything... However, we drove down to the sunshine coast. It was a lovely day and we stopped at a viewpoint where we ate a cold sausage sandwich before walking up a mountain on a very flat rock face to the highest point for miles. There was a steep drop one side where locals were climbing and abseiling. But you could see for miles and was a lovely view! We arrived in Noosa which...

We slept well although the guy in our room is retry weird, he kept asking me bout the time when we were all in bed in the dark! Breakfast was included s we enjoyed cereal, toast and coffee.

We did a quick food shop before heading back to the flashpackers for lunch. We spent the...

We stopped at a few petrol stops to top up and swap drivers. We stopped for 45 mins at McDs in Rockingham for lunch were we also got some Internet. The weather was warm, but had a number of heavy rain showers that became more frequent the further south we got. I get the feeli...

We woke at 5.30 (eeek) and tried to silently get ready whilst the other two couples were still asleep. However, our bed was super squeaky and this proved rather hard. We had had the air-con on all night and so Garth didn't sleep well as was very cold! I, however, had taken out my sleeping bag and was quite snug - although my throat was really swollen and sore again :( We walked round to the local bus stop where we had a 15 minute wait for our mini bus to pick us...
