Day 12
: Surf Club fry up & a ferry to Fraser Island
Sunday 2nd November 2014
Thanks to Annette & Ken for an all you can eat Sunday breakfast at the surf club ( Where else ? )
We enjoyed watching the nippers ( The junior life guards) going through their paces, as we tucked into our meals.
After a fond farewell & promises to return our gracious hosts' favour in september next yr, we set off towards Hervey Bay & our ferry to Fraser Island.
We filled up with fuel in anticipation of Wednesdays super long drive & caught the Kingfisher Bay ferry for a 45 minute journey to the world largest sand Island.
We had bright sunshine & took advantage of the open upper deck.
Our vigilent Captain studied the sports pages as our ferry headed towards potential disaster!
Narrowly missing 2 icebergs & a German U Boat we docked at Fraser Island & a small bus brought us to the Resort.
We explored our surroundings & settled into our " Sea view" Room , We visited the car hire area & found Ian's request for an automatic vehicle had not been fed through, Complaints have been lodged !!!
Still smarting from the car episode, Ian attempts to eat a peanut whilst posing for a photo.. The results speak for themselves.
Dinner is to follow then a good sleep, possibly a quick Heimlich to dislodge the peanut too !
Goodnight reader xx
