Its official. I despise reclining seats. It's a great idea in theory but in reality is ridiculous. The worse reclining seats I have come across In my 25years are aboard the greyhound buses in Australia. The only thing worse than them are the people who insist on putting there seat as far back as it will go as soon as they board, without even trying to sleep with it even just slightly reclined.

Wow. What a day! As the alarm sounded at 5:55 am, I'll be honest, I initially found dragging myself up difficult! However, there we were at the bus stop waiting to be picked up for our sailing trip around the whitsundays. The skies were blue again as we jumped aboard the camira (aboriginal meaning "of the wind") catamaran, I was quick to grab us a spot at the front o the boat across the mesh part under the sails, I needn't have rushed to be honest though as the ...

As soon as we got into the room we dug out our swimmers and headed down to the lagoon for some...

We were so tired after our Fraser island trip but had to get up to check out of the hostel. We had planned to hire bikes today as not due to leave until this evening on the night bus to Airlie beach, however, the weather was a bit wet so we just thought we'd go for a wonder and grab a coffee at the beach.
