Frasier Island







As you can see in the photos, you can easily get stuck in the sand and the tide was quickly coming in so our tour guide was getting a little nervous.

We had a great group of 13 that we spent the 3 days with.....3 Swiss, 2 irish, 1 Scottish, 2 Dutch, 1 English, 1 Greek. 1 Romania, 1 Auzzie, 1 Kiwi ( our guide) and 1 American (me:)

So a varied group and we had great fun in our close knit quarters....as you can see in the photo...our guide called it the Hilton of camping because the tents were built off the ground (on timber floors) with comfortable beds that had linen on them............so as Noel reminded me...we were not roughing it......until the very last morning when we had a visitor in our tent...of course only our tent...at 530am. So.....our neighbors were woken up to me screaming....I really hate little creatures that run very fast.....so I was out and up for breakfast very early!!!
(And Noel more concerned with taking a photo of it than getting it out...actually the photo above is the spot where Noel found its entrance that was suppose to be blocked off.....this is the 2nd one about to get in) Good thing this did not happen earlier because we really had the best 3 days.....probably one of the many highlights thus far!

Noel finally got to see a snack...called a childrens python...this one was at the camp site next to ours...so we all went to have a look. He wanted to hold it but luckily our tour guide told him not to!!
