Packed adventure is what happened in Queensland for us during our time there. For around two weeks it was full on with things to do and we had such a great time there, after getting of the plane, three hours later we were doing a bungee jump, next morning we were flying around in a hot air balloon, next morning was water rafting and it kept going. The White Water Rafting for me was a massive highlight of the trip, it was just so much fun to go flyinh own the rapids, tipping over and then floating down the river although Diana has a different opinion of course 😊 Bungee jump I was crapping myself the whole time but glad I did, I went there to do it a few years ago but didn't end up doing but could not let Diana show me up so I went for it 😊
We started to head south after three nights in Cairns to Airlie Beach to hop onto a yacht for sailing and diving around the Whitsundays for two nights which was great fun except I got really sick on the last night and spent it in bed. I was not
good and had no idea what had happened to me. But I still got to go for a couple of dives and spend time on Whitehaven Beach for a few hours and get some very funny photos. The yacht was perfect with plenty of space and food all day long was prepared for us, great experience for both us.
Next we were heading more south to Fraser Island to do a four wheel drive safari with six others we had never met before. Fraser Island is the biggest sand Island in the world so four wheel drive is a must when cruising around on there. It is a magnificent place and had a ball with our new friends for the two nights. It is great fishing on the Island as well and driving along there is plenty of people trying their luck along the beach. Also there is a lot of sharks as can be seen from up North when looking into the water, plenty of Tiger Sharks swimming around below so no swimming was done.
It was further south next to Brisbane to stay with my brother and now Diana had met the whole family now. We
were there for two nights and went and Diana had her first Aussie Football experience and I think she enjoyed it but thinking it is a little crazy. Good to see Mathew and Nicky though since it has been a long time since the last meeting and who knows when the next will be!
We both wish we more time to do things in Queensland since it is such a big place but with limited amount of time we got through a lot of things but plenty of driving was involved. The things listed above are the main attractions but there was plenty of other things we done in QLD but this is a quick summary, I could go on for ever 😊
