Fraser Island Continued! ...Yes we are still here !

Fraser Island update number 3! Yes we are still here but we do have a departure date now. We are leaving here on the 7th of February and are flying to Auckland, New Zealand on the 9th. We are meeting our friends Gus and Hanna there and spending the first four days rafting, caving and camping together. Carlo and I plan to rent a car after and spend 3 weeks touring both the North and South Islands. We are sure making use of our tent that w lugged over from Canada. From there we will fly to Melbourne and settle there until mid- May.(until Mom and Dad come!)

Our friends Jackie and Will (Jackie was in the wedding party) are coming to Fraser Island to volunteer with us for a week. Jackie has been texting me asking if there is anything/ anywhere she can take her boyfriend for his birthday...Oh Jackie, she doesn't know what she is in for.

Carlo gets Monday-Wednesday off next week so we are going to the mainland to De-Fraser fry ourselves. We are hoping to visit the Australia zoo and have a proper meal....heaven!


Everything is going well and we miss you all !

Lots of love.

Carmen and Carlo

    I know I know. Spaghetti, spaghetti and . . . spaghetti. Every day!
    But there are yet so animals on the island. They are all edible.
    Snakes, lizards and spiders. Much protein! ;-)

    Hello C & C,
    it has become so quiet. Is there anything new? Or "your swimming" in Queensland (flood)?

    Ciao Harald
