Jan 2007

well this was great. not quite what i was expecting but hey, tomorrow we are going to Surfers so that will be fun! for some weird reason we stayed in chinatown with all the junkies and the homeless people. didnt dare to leave the area either, so we stayed at idas and fredriks hostel room eating pizza (or it started with us ordering the pizza, twice, and when me and Lars wondered the streets of Brisbane, we were lost) the boys got waaaay to drunk so me and Ida went out to a local bar where the cute bartender made sure we got drinks for the nite then we stopped at McDonalds where the guys working gave us free burgers and free fries and drinks. now how good is that. I know Australians compared to our boys back home are really generous but we never expected something like this! (didnt get much pictures here, not much to see actually, sorry guys.)

after missing the bus in Hervey Bay where we absolutely didnt want to spend one more nite we decided to hire a car and get to Noosa as soon as possible. Cool So off we went and got checked in at a nice motel where we actually got our own apartment to share! so no stinky dorms to share with any freaks not to mention the itchy bitchy bedbugs.. So we started the evening off well by tuning on some music and bring on the playing cards til the manager stormed into the apartment telling us to Shut up. All shook up we took a taxi into town and went for some serious partying til Ida got kicked out for some ridiculous reason by the big bouncer, uuuuh... So off we went and me being moneywise decided to take a hike instead of a taxi back to the motel. Denmark, Pia and Tom joined me til we got lost in the middle of nowhere. there we were, somewhere on the highway. we went back to 7eleven and hitch hiked with a drunk gangsta fellow for 10box. the next day we felt for movies so we hired a dvd and 3 movies to watch including Wolf Creek and not even half way thru i had already packed my bags ready to leave this sick country!

we needed a couple of 'em breaks before finally arriving to our destination; Noosa

our motel

waiting for the bus thats gonna take us to Brisbane. arent we excited guys!!!

We were 9 people, team turtle in a car on our way to woolworths to get ready for the big trip, we need food, drinks, and lots of it! Cass is happy! Cause we are going to Fraaaser island everybody the world's largest island made of sand. yeesh. so thats some sandy stuff there! lets begin. so first nite, hmm. where shall i start. well after putting up the tents and sharing a box of goon with ida + some fun drinking games we all got a bit loud and tipsy. we moved to this other group that had camped just next to ours. so i wobbled to this crowd of people i dont know and jumped into the circle theyre sitting around going: HERE I AM! that's where the party started

we had so much fun! met so many people i dont remember today. Got absolutely battered! thats all i can say about that nite actually. the following day we went for a ride with the car and i met mr.turtle, who seems awfully quiet. maybe he's just sleepin or.. dunno..

later on we went to indian head to check out the tiger sharks. also saw turtles and sting rays, damn im high up!

and this is where i thought i knew everything about 4W-driving.. oops. just kidding, hehe. our car actually broke, and the tide was coming closer and closer. so we got stuck on the beach after a good push..

everybody happy with their food? not too sandy or? hehe.

2 cars eventually came and picked us up so we could go camping somewhere where it wasnt that much wind, nice! so we got into some sort of shelter before we started with the drinking games. the next day we went swimming in the cool lakes and then back to Hervey Bay. SHOWER!!!
