Fraiser Island

Although I was now about two, almost three(!) weeks ago since we did the Fraiser, still close in memory and what a wonderful Island! Think the largest Sand ISland in the world, at least in Australia. A whole lot of sand, the mororway, on of the registred motorways in Australia, went along the beach. Only between the tides thoug, at six o´clock there is no beach left to ride on. We all might have wished for better weather, but the sun came out for four hours friday morning at least. Booked an overnight stay at on of the resorts with all inclusive and guided tour althrough the days. And, after three weeks living on sausages the lunch, dinner and brekkie buffé was as we never seen proper food before! Some rain, some cool rainforest, sand sand and sand, many good laughs and with the most beautiful wievs (Not to forget the Awesome creek...). Even though Tom got bitten by a leech, bleed quite a bit and fell into Lake McKenzie (Fraiser seemed to haunt him in some way), the rain and wind poured down on our walk over the sandblow to Lake Wabby and EVEN though the bus got stuck on the beach to brake down five minutes later when heading back to land, made us wait a good halfhour (in thruth a good two hours) before anybody could pick us up and have us seen to the Ferry back to Rainbow. Amazing, happy times.

Lookout from Indian Heads. Very very windy this day, on a calm day you see heaps of Sharks, Mantas and Turles swimming down the ocean. DID spot a Manta swimming near the shore and a SHARK!! At least for like a second, how very very cool!

The Campange pools, natural pools who used to be used by the aborigins as fish traps when the waves blow them into the pools from the ocean
