Day 4: Woke up early and in good time for the trip or so we thought. We stopped off to get a takeaway coffee and the woman behind the counter had no idea about time, she made a good coffee though. Boat was waiting for us (sounds about right), The boat was lovely. Got out of the bay area and immediately saw 2 dolphins which was great. About an hour later we had our first glance of a humpback whale and its baby we got so close.
Then a call came in from one of the other boats saying that 2 mothers and two babies up ahead and that they were teaching them things like tail slapping, breaching the sea and playing around, so we got there in no time and saw it. It was absolutely amazing seeing a massive whale that jumped out of the water. In the end we saw about 12-15 whales throughout the day.
It was a really special day which was topped off by a great lunch and a few beers. We were constantly topping up on sunscreen thoughout the day but managed to both get badly sunburnt on our heads When we got back we walked along the pier at sunset then went back to our spot to sleep. A couple of hours later we got rudely awoken by the dustman (only messin), it was a policeman, he said that we had 20 minutes to leave otherwise he would fine us 500 dollers and that we were lucky as he knew we slept there the night before and was in a good mood. (note to self never park in the same spot 3 nights in a row). So we were gone in seconds.
We were going to move on the next morning anyway so decided that we may as well move on now. So we headed north through countryside and just about made it to a petrol station it was closed though so we camped the night nearby. In the morning we got the shock of our lives
when the 5am train went past us very fast. We parked right next to a train track! Chooo Chooo

Day 3: Another good sleep, defo getting used to it. Ran the battery out last night charging the laptop, it lasted all night though as we forgot to disconnect it and it ran out. Luckily we parked on a hill, all good though as mighty strong katy was on the scene to give it a good push. Went down the beach for a few hours in the morning, tide was out so we walked out miles. Looking forward to our trip tommorrow. Gonna cook dinner and have a few beers tonight. Too easy!

Day 2: Can't believe our eyes....we have finally seen some kangeroos! What happened was we woke up early after a good nights sleep in a rest stop just off the main road, I was just finishing off having a tinkle in the bushes to find a group of kangeroos less than 100 metres from us, it was amazing 3 adults and a baby. We then went to a town called Maryborough bithplace of the author of Mary Poppins, they truely celebrated this by dedicating a statue of mary poppins. We couldnt get over the sheer size of it...It was 3 foot high. We laughed when we were sent half way round the town to see it. We then headed to Hervey Bay known for its bay where each year thousands of whales including humpback whales give birth then head on.
So we booked up a full days catermaran tour to see the whales close up, we both cant wait. Walked along the beach and I accidently stood on a flat fish of some sort which was camoflagued in the sand. Here is much more relaxed than all the other places we have been too so far,
so much infact that tonight we have a sea view on a hill 80 metres from the beach. Sweet.

Destination Unknown: Day 1. Well you guys that do not know what we are upto here goes. We intend to travel around Oz in a converted van for the next 3 months. We head off from Brisbane today and are heading north, we havent planned a route yet and are just gonna hit the road.
We started packing yesterday for a few hours and ran out of time, so katy (my girlfriend) started flapping and going mad. I had to let her in on a little secret... that we have nowhere to get to in a hurry, no deadline to be out and that she is going mad for no reason. She laughed and saw my point of view.
So today we packed up the rest of our shit Had a last warm shower? Which I acted as if I was going on a first date, giving myself a deleuxe wash instead of a normal standard, really scrubbing myself as if it was the last time ever I was washing. By this time Kristian (my friend) was making last supper. So in the next few hours we should be heading off (4pm - whoops a little late but hey whats the rush). I'm a laid back person anyway, so if this trip makes me any more laid back and you want to see me ill be lying horizontal on some beach waiting
for the next coconut to fall from the tree. More from us later.
