I’ve just uploaded a new set of pictures from Fraser Island. I went this weekend on a two day trip with my school. What an incredible place. It is about two hours north of Sippy Downs, off the coast a bit in the Coral Sea. It’s the largest sand island in the world, full of unique plant and animals species, and hydrological phenomenons including a “perched” fresh water lake. It also has the only rainforest with sand soil. I saw King Ferns which were 1600-2000 years old! Not to mention a big old shipwreck from 1935. Incredible. Saturday night we went down to the beach…and wow, the sky was breathtaking. I’ve never seen so many stars in my entire life. And the milkyway was so vibrant. The stars twinkled, and we saw two shooting stars, and made wonderful wishes. Sunday morning Christine and I woke up at 5am to go to the beach and watch the sunrise, which was beautiful. And believe it or not, the pictures do not begin to do the place justice! It’s definitely one of the coolest places I’ve ever been. Christine has an underwater case for her camera so we took some really awesome underwater shots! Check it out. (Click Australia Pictures on the side)
