Airlie Beach and Yeppoon

We had a great time in Airlie Beach. We managed to get a covered spot on the campsite - which allowed us to get a few days respite from the sun! Its soooo hot during the day... I'll need to be careful, as I've just had a grade one hair cut all over! My hair is now the same length as the beard that I am growing :-) (I doubt the beard will see the light of day back home - I always promised myself I'd never end up looking like one of the computing professors at Uni!)

We took a day trip around the Whitsunday's. They are truly beautiful islands. Got loads of pics, including some professional ones of me and Fran on the beach – no we didn’t get married folks before you guys start getting worried J We didn’t go in the water though as its stinger season, and believe me, you don’t want to get stung by one of those little buggers.

We’ve now stopped in Yeppoon (near Great Keppel Island) for a few days. Our camper van looks out onto the ocean. The view is amazing. We will probably head off shortly to Hervey Bay for a trip to Fraser Island before we head down the coast to Surfers Paradise and Brisbane.

Hope you are all well back home.

Keep in touch. J&F

PS No photos at the mo as I am having a nightmare trying to upgrade my flickr on-line account. Paypal insist on ridiculous security measures - like phoning your home phone number to verify your location - not easy when travelling abroad eh!
