Fraser Island....Part three

Fraser Island....Part two.

A typical view across the island. The locals said the road conditions were the worst they have been for many years. This photo doesn't do the poor conditions justice.

 Checking out the remains of the ship Maheno.

Fun at Champagne Pools.

 We all loved Eli Creek....

Off to Lake McKenzie....

Dishes time.

Our walk up the 2.2 km sand hill. KJ said it was Tatooine. Obviously we are not Sandpeople....(hint) "Sandpeople walk in single file to disguise their numbers."Obi-Wan Kenobi.

The land Rover standing proud amongst all the tourist buses.

The Pinnacles. Up to 12 different sand colours can be collected from this point.

The Dingo grid. Electrified grid....

Beyond Bundaberg and Harvey Bay....off to Fraser Island

The reason why no mice make it from mainland Australia to Fraser Island....  :)

 On Fraser Island's main road.....

 Best to drive at low tide....

Up early for a sunrise and an early morning fish....

 Success....just after this one, CSG went on to catch the biggest Taylor for the week....

Needless to say.... what we had for breakfast and dinner most nights....

Our friend, who greeted us every morning while fishing....

?????

Carmila Beach....Bundaberg

 After an effort, low range, 20psi and the use of Maxtrax, we got there. An amazing free camping spot on the beach. We roughed it here for three nights....until we ran out of water for showers.

We found and collected hundreds of shells....some of them moved!

 CSG and KJ made a structure each day to watch the many Hermit Crabs collected.

On the way to Bundaberg Distillery. We watched Sugar Cane being harvested. Very skilled team work to do this.
 

At the distillery, undertaking the tour. After a couple of samples, I discovered one of life's great mysteries. I worked out where clouds come from....
