Country Homestead to Whitsunday's
The journey took us over the Tropic of Capricorn
After our quick stop in Arlie Beach the people who were going sailing in the Whitsunday's went and the rest of us went to daydream island.
Daydream Island was a lush resort island in the middle of the Whitsunday's. We had a 4 bed room with which like a lot of the places was a double that bunks had been put in for Contiki. The resort on the other hand was lovely; very posh. With 4 pools 3 restaurants a spa and various things to do.
During the daytimes at Daydream I spent the time sunbathing or doing activities such was aquafit or water polo. The first night we got dinner provided which was a huge, huge buffet that had so much nice stuff that I think we all went up about 10 times lol. Then we went to a pool party which was for our Contiki group another Contiki group which was doing the same trip just the opposite way and staff.
It was a really good night with lots of alcohol, party games and yes some people ending up in the pool although thankfully not me.
On the second night after dinner some of us went to see an outside movie which was basically like an American drive-in but with chairs and blankets instead of cars we also watched bed time stories instead of a horror flick but the whole thing was really fun and different.
On the last night we had another pool party with the people who had returned from the sailing trip this one wasn't quite as wild as I think we were all aware that we had another early start in the morning but there was still alcohol, games and a pool which this time I almost ended up in, although thankfully got out of it at the last second lol.
