Left Airlie now and took the Greyhound (13 hour drive) down to Hervey Bay so we could go to Fraser Island - the largest sand island in the world.
hervey bay is described as a pensioners paradise - it's certainly nothing to look at and the only reason people go there is because it is the gateway for Fraser Island.
We took a 4 wheel drive car with 8 strangers and drove around the island seeing the sites - lots of freshwater lakes to swim in too. Our group was 6 cracking lads from Northern Ireland, a swiss girl and 2 canadian girls plus Gillian and I of course.
It was a great time with lots of laughs and some shocking driving (Stevie - you know what i'm talking about!) but we all came out of it in 1 piece.
Our friend Jess unfortunately got stuck with a group of people who didn't speak much english so she was happy to meet us again in Hervey Bay for the ritual sushi!
