Fraser Island

We left the dry lands and headed for Fraser Island, which is the world's largest sand island. So yes, the whole island is sand. Some how, a rainforest was able to flourish which makes for a pretty dramatic setting.

That night we had an 'S' theme party. This meant you had to dress up, and whatever it was had to start with S (i.e. Superman, Sky, Superhero, etc).

The next day everyone was feeling pretty sluggish after a long night, but we headed out on a 4-wheel drive tour. We drove around in these monster buses which were jacked up for off-roading. There are no paved road on the sand island, its all off-roading. We had a quick drive around to some of the highlights on the island.

After the tour, the contiki crew met up for an awesome sunset.
