Rolling Surf Resort Caloundra

... 8221;. We are not sure of our total weight and not willing to risk falling thru&#8217; the bridge or whatever. We already knew about needing to take another way, but got very lost on bumpy forest roads following our &#8220;CAMP 5&#8221; instructions to the other route and so we switched on our GPS, TOM_TOM who gave us a direction to somewhere 200 kms away. <br><br>Oh well, we kept our cool, gave up and went to a Caravan Park in Dicky Beach ...

... if you didn't see a whale! We had nothing to lose and we were so right to go. We sailed out at 1:30pm and there were only 40 people on board a five tier ship (most were Japanese Tourists with big lenses!!) As we sailed out of the Harbour we were told by the skipper to remove hats as it could get a little windy! We were travelling at 21 knots and we were sat right at the front of the ship (outdoors). Emma's laughter then began in earnest as a man lost his ...

... were very well maintained, all the animals looked really healthy, and the keepers we spoke with were both very helpful and friendly. Lana's friend made a call to one of his reptile buddies and was able to get us into the "Totally Tortoise" Encounter (for free!) at 12:30 so we headed over after grabbing a sandwich at the "Feeding Frenzy Foodcourt." the tortoises were of the Aldabran Giant species from the islands of Aldabra Atoll in the ...

... Termin, keine Werbung und keine ordentliche Planung. Ich bin dann anschließend noch zur Southbank und habe mich dort mit Daniel an der Lagune getroffen. Wir sind dann anschließend noch über den Wochenend-Markt an der Southbank gelaufen und dann bin ich nach Hause. Mick kam dann gegen 19 Uhr von der Arbeit und wir haben uns noch getroffen und etwas erzählt. Samstag hat mich Phil von Zuhause abgeholt und wir sind zu zweit zur Gold Coast runter gefahren ...

... later we found a sea turtle washed up on the shore, very cool. Left Hervey Bay and headed a bit inland, an area called the Hinterland, parallel to the Sunshine coast. We found some really neat back roads, stopped at a pineapple plantation, and bought the sweetest juiciest freshest pineapple I have ever had. Stopped at a little town called Imbil for a picnic lunch, and a passenger railcar went through. Runs from Gympie through everyday. We ended up on ...

... We continue on towards the Glass House Mountains and hope to free camp at a rest area but as it is right next to the road and stinks from the not-so long drops, we decide to continue on to find a campsite. The next day our folks head off to Australia Zoo whilst we, having seen many Aussie critters, decide to have some internet time. We also need to do some shopping for the surprise we have planned for tonight. We meet up with our ...

... we took Bob for a ride in Chitty. He had seen the original car on the film set but was never allowed to touch it,so we had made his day! This all took place the day before we were due to drive chitty down to the port. Spending most of the day polishing Chitty ready for a four week journey in a container we made shure she was spotless and most importantly dry. Well It rained! all the way to Brisbane it Rained, but not just any old rain ...

... restaurant "Cafe le Monde" came highly recommended in the Lonely Planet and for once it got it right. After a lovely meal and some wine we decided we would head back to the hostel for an early night, however our plans changed pretty quickly. When we got back to the hostel all the staff (whom didn't have partners) were drowning there sorrows with a bottle of JD. They saw us coming in and told us to join them. 30 mins later we found ...

... about? who knows. ask the guy with the giant ball of string in the states. anyway, we also saw plenty of wildlife too. roos of course! each town has seemed to have its own population of birds. sulfur tipped atoos in one town. kuckaburras in the next. lorikeets in the next. and then some other bird that sounds like a space ship to me, but i don't know what it is yet. we have ...

... on the resume. I'd much rather work with people who are in it because they care, not because it will help them down the road. I finished my laundry and finally had some success uploading photos to my journal. Around 7 I left for the Valley to meet Daniel, Callum, and Anna at Birdee's. Once again the bar was hoping, leading me to vote it best hostel bar in Brisbane (though I have only been to two of them). Chris and Sabine ...
