I have found my paradise. This is when i imagined travelling to be like whilst in rainy grey London working to save. The feeling of being here is overwhelming, i have had to scream on numerous occasions to vent my growing excitment whilst driving our group of 8 in the 4x4, something that did cause the alarm of my passengers.

I have found my paradise. This is when i imagined travelling to be like whilst in rainy grey London working to save. The feeling of being here is overwhelming, i have had to scream on numerous occasions to vent my growing excitment whilst driving our group of 8 in the 4x4, something that did cause the alarm of my passengers.



Camping out on the beach setting up the tent over a beer and watching the amazing sunsets that lit up the whole sky in a vivid scarlet hue with friends was pretty special. After the sunset, we all sat drinking VB on a sand dune admiring the red sky when after about 1 hour there was a moon rise!!! we were totally unprepared for this and i did'nt know they existed!!, as the moon rose from the horizon it appeared about 5 times bigger then i am used to seeing and was redish in colour!! and reflected its red hue onto the rough ocean, amazing sight to see whilst knawing the sand with your bare feet and sipping beer! Fraser island just has this ambience that serves to uplife the spirit, a feeling of raw nature.



Drunken games around the camp fire underneath the stars followed and lasted until we saw the sun rising!!! awesome



The days spend on Fraser island are spent driving to various lakes and creeks. The best of all has to be Lake McKenzie. Stunning Turquoise crystal clear fresh water for swimming (we were told that the ocean is a definite no for swimming doe to the strong under currents and Tiger sharks!) and fine white grainy sand fringed with green rain forest. Straight out of a postcard.



At indian head we caught a highup panoramic view of 70 mile beach at dusk. The tiger shark advice proved top be correct as we spotted around 6 of them all hovering close to the shore for feeding, it put my drunken dancing in the ocean the previous night into perspective i.e. i was a drunken arse.



3 days we spent here and i have to say it has been some of the best days of my life.
