After a relatively short journey (5 hours) we got to Rainbow beach which would be our base for our tour of Fraser Island. We stayed at Frasers on Rainbow, unfortunately had quite possibly the most uncomfortable beds we have experienced to date, they had a water proof plastic lining around the mattress, we could only assume this was to prevent bed bugs and not in case we lost all control of our bladder through the heavy consumption of alcohol, but on the plus a balcony overlooking the pool and a relaxed bar and vibe.

Somehow Melbourne seemed to balance its cultured ... read more
