Fraser

Driving onto the ferry to take us across
So deep breath… and catch up! I feel like I have to write really fast to get all this in and therefore metaphorically speak really fast, hence the breath.
This construction stuff is tiring and time consuming and tantalizing/torturous (at times), any other t-words to fit in there?

Todd and I have a few weekends off since I last wrote but we have been doing some travelling which I must tell you about now. To start off, we went to Fraser over a month ago and despite feeling a bit ill, it was really nice. We went with Todd’s parents and Roman and explored this beautiful bit of Australian Island. It was a 4 hour drive or so from Dalby and just north of Double Island Point (an area we had been to many times before). Fraser was beautiful and had an incredible clear water lake with a sandy bottom called Lake MaKenzie. Of course, there was the usual incredible stretch of beach and picture perfect campsite (see pics below).

We only had one full day on the Island and it is over 100k long so we will definitely have to go back. We spent the day exploring and swimming and then retired to our site for some eating while Todd and Roman watched youtube clips and tried to teach themselves how to throw this bait-net-catching-thing of Tony’s (Todd’s father) until the night descended upon us.

Pictures paint a thousand words, and so enjoy these pictures that tell the story between my words.
