Very angry as I just wrote a huge entry and the net timed me out,grrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!!!!!!
Anyway, hey all, sorry for the lack of entries over the past week, been busy busy and mostly out at sea!
Have had a great week, went out tues-thurs on the sailing trip. Went out on a maxi sailing boat so got to experince proper vertical tilting type sailing which was great fun! The weather turned out to be amazing with enough wind to make for good sailing but also beautiful sunshine for the beaches and the tan! Living on board was a bit cosy but the crew were great and we had a good group so it was all good fun.
The islands are beautiful, very green and moutnaious but then lined with pretty sandy beaches. We basically sailing around island in the day and stopped for snorkelling and then moored in sheltered bays in the night. Weds we spent the afternnoon on whitehaven beach which is the most beautiful beach i've seen, pure white sand that actually squeaks and cleans jewelry-because of silicone, amazing! Couldn't really swim though as its the beginning of stinger season.
Thursday morning was my favourite,we were moored at whitehaven and I set my alarm for 5.45(belive it or not I got up!) to watch the sunrise. It was amazing, I was the only one up except the captain so he made me a cuppa and I sat on my own on the deck watching the sunrise over the beach with the occasional turtle popping up for its 1st breath of the day- the perfect start to a day i think! we then had a chilled sail back to the mainland thurs as the wind had dropped quite a bit. That evening we caught the overnight bus to hervery bay to go to fraser island the next day.
After a 13 hour journey we were pretty shattered but gpt picked up from bus station 7.30 am to go on the trip. Had a great day though, another beautiflu place-wonder how many times i'm saying beautiful! It was so much fun driving round in a 4by 4 bus bumping up and down all day! WE stopped at lakes and creeks to swim and saw the famous shipwreck and coloured sands on the island. Its incredible to thing that its all sand and yet so green, such a cool place!
WE then stayed the night at hervey as there was no bus and we were shattered and got the bus this morning to noosa. Have spent the day on the beach realxningas its been a tiring week. Noosa is a lovely place but tomoroow off top steve irwins zoo and then to byron bay.
Will update pics when i find a comp that will let me!
love to all,
sorry for speeling mistakes!
