A big hello!
we go on the Atherton Tablelands : kept our enthusiasm is limited. Although we determined 5 waterfalls in a day got to see, but as you know we have our "Paradise Falls" already found ...;)
One thing must be very clearly lift: Paronella Castle !
the middle of nowhere has a English long ago fulfilled his dream and se ine own landscape created with Schloesschen, love fountain, waterfall, small beautiful paths through se even inen scale jungle, so with all bells and whistles. We stayed there overnight and enjoyed the charm and the pleasant aura.
The next day we visited the Billabong Sanctuary , a very beautiful natural wildlife park where we could see huge crocodiles food. And now it comes: July, intimate Wombat had on his arm! These animals are incredible, they look like gigantic guinea pigs, have large round eyes and are very, very difficult. And especially so soft. To give you an idea, here's the photo:
We could still cute pet koalas and even had a cobra around his neck. Cassowarries there were, but we have seen in the wild. Also something very special because these colorful birds that are very similar to a bouquet, but unfortunately only very rarely are. They are all black, have very beautiful feathers and the head is bright red with little blue and green. Looks great from ...
We were on our way to Airlie Beach, the starting point for the world famous Withsundays Islands. There we wanted to join a sailing trip and are inspired by the white-sand beaches, can but unfortunately, the weather had thwarted plans. The place is famous for its lively atmosphere and the many parties that get there every night. We therefore made a very palatable evening and let the next day the Withsundays behind us. The prices for the Segeltoerns were astronomical, and if that weather is too bad, we would prefer to save us money. Finally, we still come to New Zealand and from there it's not far to the South Seas ...
It was therefore more to Rockhampton, the Beef Capital of Australia. This means that Australia is completely supplied by the meat from Rockhampton and just imagine you'll be on, it's a very rural area, Bayern resembles quite naturally and we felt very comfortable ...
We ate there our (no kidding) good races Steak our life (in Rumpsteck Pepper Souce .. hmmm)! About the limit was, we were allowed in the parking lot of a secluded pubs with our campers are free to that evening and played a one-man blues band in the pub. As I said it was quite remote, we found only Aussies and diehard Cowboys and since it is well known that Australians are the best beer-drinkers in the world, it was also accordingly ...;) All were dancing (and falling every 5 minutes around) and sang until late into the night, and we are both right in the middle! Gaudi was the a!
was in our guidebook that the island of Great Keppel Iceland inferior to the famous Withsundys in nothing and is probably just as nice, but not so besieged by tourists. So we packed our things and went 7 with the ferry for 2 days on the island said. And it was exactly as described in the guide books: miles of beaches that we had for ourselves to (understandable when you think that only about 80 people live on this island). We spent two wonderful, quiet days and could hardly save her from the opossum, the to hundreds of times live on Great Keppel . For the inhabitants of a plague, an exotic for us copy everything in the animal's repertoire.
It went on to Bundaberg . Has anyone heard of the famous Australian rum? In the town has the largest rum Destellerie established and supplied throughout Australia with the proper drop. As most know that Michael is a great rum-lovers and so was the visit with tour and Off course the sample is a must. We were very impressed by the elaborate production cycle and now drink more rum as before there ...;) In Bundaberg it a beach that is famous as an egg-drop place the turtles. Every year, exactly at this time (ie in October are December), the fine turtle come from all over the world, and there lay their eggs. As we learned, are not the little. The women in this period about 4 times to this place and set off incredible 1000 eggs! We waited the whole evening with many other visitors, but unfortunately, the turtle that evening probably too lazy ... we saw none. But instead we were with lots of very interesting information ueberschuettet, for example, that gender depends on the temperature of the sand. If the summer is somewhat colder in a year, thousands of small-Schlidkroeten men are born.
Fraser Iceland, here we come!
Our The starting point was Hervey Bay, where we joined a small Guppe of about 15 people to a Self-Drive Tour . This means we are on our own, no annoying guides who know every stone a story. We have made two (mind you PINK) 4WD cars available, via camping equipment and tents. Then it went off. In our group 3 fun-Ami Girls 2 Hollaender, had some German and Swiss four guys who are all absolute fun guns.
man must know, the island consists only of sand. Some say there are more sand in the Sahara. The roads are of course only sand and the rides are so memorable. A few times we break even still there, but Luckily we had strong men on board, had to push it. But what makes the selling agency.
The rides on the beach neber the sea was quite easy because the sand is pretty hard there, and you drive like on a normal street. But once we went into the island interior, we were well shaken vigorously.
We passed beautiful lakes with crystal clear waters of the To refresh yourself. Since you can not swim in the sea (otherwise there's a small shark and bites off a finger), the lakes we were very popular! Most were surrounded by white sand and dunes, which looked very beautiful course. was
In the evening, grilled, sang and played games like in a scout camp, great atmosphere! As we have seen with the Swiss very well and had fun, we have joined forces and for a while now and travel along with the freaky guys.
The island was a unique experience and we are very happy that we joined this group.
We are now in Brisbane, the largest city in the Sunshine and Gold Coast airports and airspace. Because it is weekend is brutal busy and the city is overshadowed by thousands of young people that are looking for fun and long evenings. We will join the crowd ...;)
Bittte kues st the snow from us and built a little snowman for both of us!
Kind regards and see you soon
