Day 169 - Mon 24th Aug: The hostel, Brisbane

Temperatures soared today, with Brisbane hitting it's highest winter temp in ages. The mercury hit 35c (it's meant to be freaking winter!), which is 10 degrees higher than the average for this time of year. Given the heat, I didn't do much today. Here's a pic of the rooftop swimming pool at the hostel.

Day 168 - Sun 23rd Aug: Noosa Heads

A quiet day spent surfing this morning; general pottering around in the afternoon so lacking in photo opps. But hey, here's another sunset! (The PSC: 48)

Day 167 - Sat 22nd Aug: Noosa Heads

The trip's picturesque sunset counter (The PSC) now reads: 47

This one's over Noosa Heads

Day 166 - Fri 21st Aug: Lake Birrabeen, Fraser Island

Got the 'artsy' photographer's hat on today: some seed thing on the beach at Lake Birrabeen.

Did you know that Fraser Island is considered to be the world's largest all sand island? FACT!

Day 165 - Thurs 20th Aug: The Maheno Shipwreck, Fraser Island

I'm suffering from bloggers dilemma today...too many candidates for pic of the day! The view from Indian Head - awesome; the sunset at the jetty - awesome; pics of crashing waves - awesome. But I've gone with this one of the Maheno Shipwreck. As I'm a slightly lazy blogger at times, I'll just post a link for more info on the boat: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maheno_(ship)

Day 164 - Weds 19th Aug: Lake McKenzie, Fraser Island

There's so many good photo opps on Fraser Island. This is the white sand beach down by Lake McKenzie - a fresh water lake that's been created only via rainfall.

Day 163 - Tues 18th Aug: Agnes Water to Hervey Bay

Mmmm....bit of a quiet day today as I made my way to Hervey Bay. So quiet in fact that I took no pics, so here's one from the beach yesterday evening.

Day 162 - Mon 17th Aug: Flying over Agnes Water and 1770

Went for a flight in a lightweight aeroplane around this awesome coastline. Bruce (the pilot) even let me have a (quick) go at flying the plane!

Day 161 - Sun 16th Aug: Scooterooing around Agnes Water and 1770

This guy in Agnes Water (Hot Rod, he's got an awesome handlebar moustache) runs this motorbike-kangaroo-watching-tour-thing and you get to ride these bikes around the towns of Agnes Water and 1770 for a couple of hours. Saw some kangaroos and sunset over the ocean, blah, blah, blah. More importantly I got to do some catalogue posing on my bike.

Day 160 - Sat 15th Aug: On an island somewhere in the Whitsundays

Went for a morning walk around one of the islands (can't remember which one) on our last day on Condor. No pure white sand at this beach still an impressive place nonetheless.
