Hey guys,
As you may have seen we have uploaded our recent pictures from heron island and the theme parks we have just been to.
We stayed at heron island for 1 night which was amazing. The island is really small and surrounded by a large reef. We got the ferry over and that day we went out snorkelling an within half an hour we had a reef shark swim past us! we got out the water and walked along the beach a little bit further an saw about 15 shark fins sticking out the water about 10metres from us. We were told by the marine guy the sharks were harmless but still didn't feel to safe with them all there so we went on and snorkelled near the peer and saw loads of fish an I turned to see Emma disappear again an a shark swim past so I chased it then 3 more sharks appeared so I got away quickly aha. Really nice getaway and the beach was so beautiful, when the tide goes out you can walk about 200mtrs in crystal clear ankle deep water to where the reef ends.
Since then we have been to Brisbane which reminded us of London where it is very hectic and cars everywhere, nothing like Perth which is smaller an a lot more relaxed. We then drove on from Brisbane about 45min an came to a campsite central of all the theme parks. (dreamland,movieworld,seaworld,wet'n'wild) first day we went to dreamland which was the biggest of them all an had a lot of great rides including a 120mtr high tower which you go up the outside on seats then drop down to the ground, I think its meant to be the worlds tallest and it took a lot to get Emma on it :D but she did it. Next day we went to movie world which had a lot of fun rides and movie settings and got to watch a car stunt show! Yesterday we went to seaworld and saw a few shows including sea lions(which were quality!) and dolphins an they were pretty awesome.
Today we met up with our friends from the mango farm and went to wet'n'wild with them, had a great day and they are now travelling down to Sydney with us. Plan to leave tomorrow morning and its about 11hours so should be there Tuesday sometime.
Well that's everything till now and till Tuesday. We will keep yas updated :)
