A lot of Sand–Fraser Island

12-14 June 2012 - Fraser Roving Tour

Fraser Island is world’s largest sand island. Google it if you want to know how big it is, but I thought it’s much smaller than it was. Since I stayed in Hervey Bay a couple of days just to do the tour, I expected a lot and luckily the weather was great and 3 days/2 nights camping on the island were quite nice (“awesome” would be a little bit too much but I was worth to wait for the tour though). Enjoy the movie (2x speed) to get a feeling for driving on sand and have a look at pictures to see another beautiful place on Australia’s east coast.

15-16 June 2012 - Just another train ride

After another night in Hervey Bay, I took the train to Airlie Beach, a city close to the Whitsunday Islands. About 12 hours and “only” 2 hours delay later, I arrived in Airlie Beach…

Next stop Airlie Beach and the Whitsundays…
