Great pics as always. So beautiful. My memories of Fraser Island are pretty bad, but it was a pretty bad holiday in general. Our guides sucked and we nearly missed the last ferry of the day off the island because we got stuck in the sand. I won't be going back there anytime soon, that's for sure!

Still, it is a beautiful part of Australia

Oh man, that really sucked :( We didn't have any guides as it was one of those self drive tours and I think that's much better. Than you can see/do whatever you want in your own time.

Beautiful pictures!

All they said was: watch out for dingoes and don't sleep on the road. D'uh.

LOL. I love that this is the sort of normal advice you get whilst travelling in Australia, haha.

Haha well I think some people got confused as most of the beach is road on Fraser Island as well, but still it was kinda obvious..

Some gorgeous pics there! Sorry to hear that it sounded like some of the trip sucked, but hope it was still enjoyable for the most part & worth it. Can't wait for more updates :)

The only thing that sucked was that part of the island was closed really, but thwe stuff we were able to see was still amazing :D

Aw I loved Fraser Island when we did our day trip there! I especially remember the humorous bus trip where we were told that we shouldn't lean too close to the windows cause we may hit our heads! And of course bouncing at least a foot off my seat over one particularly bumpy road! Lol

I have amazing pictures of our ferry journey over, where it was so windy that we really are having issues standing upright!

Oh I am so jealous! I was just talking to my cousin in Brisbane this morning, and he was like can't wait till your able to visit again! And seeing all these lovely pics makes me want to go!

Hahaha yeah we had our windows open and every now and again a branch would go into the car trying to behead someone (mostly the driver o.O).

You should go!!! I went to Brisbane before and man I really loved that city, it was beautiful!

I know, right? I could just stare at some of the views for ages.
