Hello

Me again! Having a fab time - spent a blissful few days sailing round the Whitsunday Islands - what can i say - complete paradise! I can definately understand why Whitehaven Beach is one of the top 10 beaches in the world - absolutely breathtaking! The trip itself was really fun - on a boat called "Reality". Really fun 3 days - 22 of us on board in total, abt 5 other English people whom we got along with really well and mostly Europeans. The trip was slightly marred by the group of 12 german people who refused to talk to us, join in any games or actually even bother speaking to us! Dont worry - the rest of us had ana amazing time - 3 days of drinking, sunbathing and snorkelling.

I went scuba diving again - soo awesome. Had a few ear issues but managed to work it out - the dive was fab - went into all these little coral caves. Completely different to the last dive - altho i saw seom more nemo fish, a huuuuge marrowrass fish (abt twice the size of me), a giant stingray on the sea bed and lots of weird coral - including some sea cucmbers. Absolutely fascinating!

Suprisingly i survived the 3 days without getting sea sick once - altho i was drugged up with travel pills and ginger just in case! Also went boom netting on the last day - which is were you jump onto a giant net and get dragged along! Pretty funny - i was glad a ihad my stinger suit on - a couple of the girls almost lost their bikinis! The rest of the time we spent sunbathing on the roof of the boat (with sunblock on of course) and spent the evenings playing drinking games. Poor Anna lost every drinking game going - pretty funnny to watch her doing all the forefeits - altho i cant speak of the details as she'll beat me up!

In Rockhampton today - dull as beacuse everything is closed because they dont have sunday trading here. Heading down to Hervey Bay then Rainbow Beach to do our Fraser tour next week. Cant say im looking forward to getting on ANOTHER bus - but its a means to an end here!

Off to watch England get torn apart in the cricket!
