Just got back from a week in the Whisunday Islands and Airlie Beach. I flew to Queensland on Sunday and spent a day at Airlie Beach. It was an interesting experience staying a hostel by myself, the weather was terrible and so sitting on the beach wasnt exactly an option. On Thurs I headed to the harbour and started out on a 3 day sailing trip through the 72 Whitsunday islands. I was on the boat with 10 other people and a crew of 3. The sailing, snorkling and hanging out was great! but unfortuantly it rained the ENTIRE TIME!!!!! So here are some rather deppressing pics of me, having a good time in the rain!
This is me and Cheryl. She was my buddy on the boat. We are on Whithaven beach, one of the most famous white beaches in the world, except in the rain i guess! We are dressed ever so elegantly in our stinger suits, cause of the jelly fish..and no we havent been swimming yet...were soaked from the RAIN!

During one of the brief hours of no rain, (still no blue skies) we were really able to sail. Which was AMAZING! This is my feet. I am sitting on the deck of the boat..and we are heeling or hiking as some same..meaning that i thought i was going to fall straight down into the ocean!!! I think we were going like 12 knots or something...and i smoked my toe on a rock..ouch.
Here are some precious hermit crabs...can you see the one little guy poking out??? they were really cool...great shells and were pretty tiny...hmm facinating..
well yup..that was a little look at my trip.. i am back in sydney, hanging out doing laundry and hanging out with friends...gooood times!
lots of love
