Picked up the campervan today - was so excited!!!! Had to say bye to Surfers and Marisa though which was pretty sad - will be seeing her in Fiji though so only 5 weeks til then.
We drove from Brisbane to Hervey Bay, stopping at 'Wild Horse Mountain' lookout which was just gorgeous! Had to climb a massive hill though in the scorching heat which was pretty tough. Then went to a pineapple plantation and got my photo taken with a massive pineapple - hee hee.
Arrived at Hervey Bay around tea time, checked into the hostel which is actually really nice and then headed to the lounge room to get our safety briefing for our trip tomorrow. We have been put into groups of 9 for each 4x4 car and were told all about - wild dingoes, snakes, spiders, sharks, lizards, mosquitoes etc that will be living with us on Fraser Island - aaaaaaaaaaaaagggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhh!!! It was also explained as to how dangerous the 4x4 cars can be for tipping over and getting stuck - we were all pretty freaked out.
After the meeting our group discussed our shopping list for our trip and I'm now just about to head off and pack!!! We leave her at 7.30am tomorrow, buy our food and alcohol and then head on the ferry over to Fraser Island. Then we have three days to explore, drive, camp in tents, run from dangerous animals, sunbathe, drink and party - really excited but also a little nervous. Not taking my mobile as we have been told that it won't work so whats the point!!
Will update in three days time with all the gossip and will also upload my 30th pics and Fraser Island pics. Speak to you all soon................if I survive..................
