Dec 19, 2008 - Rainbow Beach to Fraser Island, QLD - Oasis in the desert

Both woke up for the 2nd day in a row hungover (Adam slightly more so as Tim had managed to get a decent 8 hours of sleep in), but sorted ourselves out for our 2 day/1 night trip around Fraser Island on a 4x4 bus. ... Our guide for the trip, Cam, picked us up at about 7:45 where we drove to Inskip Point to board our barge ferry for the 20 minute to Fraser Island. ... Once on the island we drove up 75 mile beach to the Eulong resort (seeing a wild dingo pup on the way).Both woke up for the 2nd day in a row hungover (Adam slightly more so as Tim had managed to get a decent 8 hours of sleep in), but sorted ourselves out for our 2 day/1 night trip around Fraser Island on a 4x4 bus. ...

Dec 8, 2008 - Fraser Island camping day 3

We woke up this morning not quite believing we made it through the storm, man!!!! Everyone was up pretty early this morning (about 5-6am) but seeing as most of us had gone to bed before 9pm we were all quite spritely and chipper!! We were also welcomed by a pretty amazing sunrise and a couple of Dingos (in the distance!) too!!! Brecko consisted of some sausage sangas and cereal which set us up well for our last day. We still have no idea how he did them!!! Everyone crashed after this tired but happy they had survived their 3 day Fraser Island adventure! :) ...

Jul 5, 2008 - Hervey Bay and Fraser Island baby!!!!

We arrived in Hevery bay just in time for our Fraser Island briefing! We met everyone in our group and had to watch all these safety video's about being eaten my dingo and stuff! We then had to go shopping for the group so Lizzie and i volunteered to go with these 2 other guys! Probably THE single most stressful and annoying experience of my WHOLE trip! Will have to explain this story in person some other time!!! Anyway off we went to Fraser Island! And guess what. ...

May 31, 2008 - Fraser Island

My arrival at Hervey Bay; the gateway to Fraser Island coincided with the worst Australian weather so far, but the trip was booked and fees had been paid, except of course for the additional expenses that seem an inevitable part of all Australian bookings. ... The group from Hull were kids with a passion for football, heightened by Hulls entry into the premiership and beer and so the beauty of Fraser Island was an incidental backdrop to their extended road party around Australia. ... My trip to Fraser island was further marred by mosquitoes on the final afternoon while we waited for the ferry I received around 60 bites in two hours. ...
