Still hanging out with Fraser.....

After another buffet meal,  it's no wonder people put on weight traveling..... Sit on bus.... See sight..... Sit on bus.... All you can eat..... Sit on bus..... See sight.... All you can eat
He he well today we set off to Lake G with a 45 min walk through the sand and the forrest and then suddenly boom it opens up and there are these green or brownish coloured fresh water lakes with steep sided dunes and no one there.  Fresh sand for our feet to leave their imprint on.  These lakes have small fish and cat fish so felt a bit creepy to swim in but plenty warm enough

There are 40 of us on our tour of a cross section of groups, that kind of fall into the following categories
1 The retirees- at least two of them remind me of mum none of my dad and have reassured me it's OK to travel by myself their children do it too!
2. The couples -  all shapes and sizes but most seem to have a campervan and are wanting to actually become Australian citizens and the girls wealthier trousers as to wear they are going.
3. The backpackers: the cross section of foreign youth,  friends through circumstance,  who share where they've been or where they are going
4. English as your first language: this includes ex-pats and generally results in people talking about back home despite being here for years
5. The randoms and all I can say is random and that includes myself!

We finish up by taking in the Pinnacles,  coloured sand a bit like Alum Bay at the Needles,  a formerly spectacular cruise liner from 1905 now  wrecked on the shore which genuinely had quite the story* and. Eli Creek rubber ringing down after lunch.

Fraser Island has plenty of stories and facts to it but it is also on of I believe one of the  2 places in the world where they land planes on the beach.... The other being Barra in the Outer Hebrides so it seemed rude not to take the flight over.
