Fraser Island

Fraser Island, its the place where you can load up SUV full of booze, food, and people and drive on the beach. But, if you thinking that you are going for a quite relaxing camping trip. this isn't the place to go. Also if you run out of booze you can just buy more at one of four bottle shops on the island.

traffic jam


Here is my friend Yvonne driving, I only got to drive for about 5 mins, but it was still fun


This is the group that I want with, it was a bunch of brits and irish and then me. But, it was great group


We were suppose to check the equipment before we left, which we did but we didn't notice that one of the poles were broken. But, we were usually drunk so we didn't really notice that the tent was broken


These are some shots from our first night,


the first meal that we had was steaks so, the boys decided that they were going to cook


By the end of the trip, sand was everywhere, anytime that you were eating you get bits of sand in your mouth, it was disgusting.


The first night, we met these austraian guys who were on a fishing trip. As we were eating they came over and asked us if we had seen Fraser Island Bronco, we all said that we hadn't. I went over to see what they were talking about, and all it was a little stool.

Here is me petting the Fraser Island Bronco



Me riding the bronco


Here is one of the guys that I did the trip, and he decided that he was going to get naked and ride the bronco


Here is a tom and steve showing off their lady parts



We went to this place called Lake Mackenzie and it this crystal blue lake. it was great, we spent a couple of hours just swimming and drinking some beers. A week before they say they spotted crocodiles at the lake. it turned out to be a fake




On our last day we decided that we were going to go to this another lake, which was a mistake. Australians don't have a sense of distance what so ever. When we started this walk, it said "1 km," but every time a sign came up it said 1km. About 30 mins of the walk was like this, you were just walking in sand and it was windy day. it was horrible


We went to start our car on the last day, and our battery wouldn't start, so we had to flag someone down on the beach and get them to give us a boast
