Back from Fraser Island!

We spent the last three days in Fraser Island, the world biggest sand island! :D This time was a little bit different as it was a self guided tour! We were with 7 other people (a French couple, a German couple and 3 English guys), and we've been provided a 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser with a suggested itinerary for the trip! The weather was sometimes cloudy but the landscapes were still beautiful. In particular, Lake McKenzie was gorgeous! The water was clear and turquoise.

The island is also known for its animals, especially the wild dingoes. Unfortunately, we only saw two, and they were not really wild (it was in an aboriginal campground). No turtles, no shark, no dolphin :(  But we saw several monitors (like big big lezards) and two pythons! We also saw the wreck on the beach of an old luxury boat...

It was a really interesting adventure! Driving in the sand was really fun and sometimes scarry! We met nice people and had a really good time!
