Maybe the dingo ate your baby

So folks unfortunately im having trouble with the loading of pictures right now so youll just be stuck reading for the time being.

I would first like to wish you all a merry christmas, mine was fairly uneventful as i got off the bus in a random town hoping to see some sea turtles laying eggs on the beach and some babies making there way down to the sea after hatching, but being christmas they werent running any tours so i basically just chilled out at a hostel. So christmas took place with a pig roast, lamb roast at the hostel and i read some of my book. yes not to exciting, ohh and i had some noodles for dinner from the local yummy noodle shop, and it was the only place open in town.

So a few days ago i took part in a self drive tour of fraser island, which was absolutely awesome. Basically we cram 9 people into a 4x4 van style jeep thing, and drive all over the freaking place. thankfully we had a good group and everyone got along, though some of the other groups had some idiots. One night a group woke up and meat was all over there tents and dingos were rampant. not a cool joke on this island as these things will attack.
Anyways, my group consisted of 4 canucks, 2 danes, 2 germans and a pommy. So we had some good times im not good with names so i designated the people whos names i couldnt remember into teams, which was only team germany.
Fraser island is the largest sand island in the world and has several fresh water lakes which is weird because it stretches out way into the ocean, well infact its surrounded by ocean and being all sand you would think it would have salt water. anyways this water is so fresh and clean you can drink while you swim. so long as you didnt just pee ofcourse, just saying....
there are many cool features out on this island, indian heads the rock formation which caused the island looks out over the ocean and on good days you can see tiger sharks in the waters but alas we saw nothing but jellys. We arent aloud to swim in the ocean around the island at all as it is a major tiger shark breeding area so that was cool.
There was also the Champaign pools which are right along the oceanand when a big wave comes in it bubbles over the rocks into these pools where you are and it feels like you were in champaign so that was pretty neat.
There were also Lake waby and lake mackenzie which were fresh water lakes in the middle of the island, waby is about to get filled in by a sand dune that is slowly working its way across the islad but its great to sand board into, though we also saw alot of people eat it in the process one guy jumped with the board and landed on his face like 3 times in a row, i quite enjoyed that.

The driving over here on the island was like nothing i have seen before, it was definately 4x4 and i would say it was almost like driving through snow in parts as the sand was so loose. So uh yeah ill try and get some pictures up at some point but no promises.
Cheeers, and stay precious
