Torquay, Queensland
Just returned from a day on Fraser Island. 4WD only allowed so took a tour - just as well - the bus had a puncture on the return journey so we all had to pile out whilst the tyre was changed - and it started to pour with rain. We came to Oz for sunshine but the rain seems to be following us around.
We escaped from North Queensland and the floods by staying overnight at Tully and waiting for the flood waters to recede enough for the police to open the road. We left at 07.00hrs to beat the tide and made it south. The Whitsundays were fantastic - fabulous weather and great snorkelling.
We're staying in Hervey Bay which is typical Aussie coast and very pleasent - swam in the sea yesterday (no rain!!).
Tomorrow we move on south for a couple of days then to Brisbane and back to the city lights after a couple of weeks or more just taking it easy.
