An absolutely spectacular display. We were sitting near Milson's point next to the Harbour Bridge from about 6pm. That's six hours of waiting. For a firework show. It was worth it, but there is no chance you'd get me hanging around London in the middle of winter in the same manner!
We were lucky to fly right past the city on the way down from Brisbane. Even luckier, I had my camera to hand and managed to grab a couple of skyline shots with the Harbour Bridge and Opera House in full view.
We took a tour of Fraser Island taking in Eli Creek, Maheno ship wreck, the coloured sands and Lake McKenzie. Lake McKenzie was, without doubt, the highlight of the day even though the sun wasn't shining for once
A day on the road. Enough to drive you mad but luckily the adverts on the side of the road help keep you going... We stopped off at Clairview for a lunch stop, which turned out to be an incredibly lucky choice. Then onto Rockhampton which was absolutely desserted!
