I spent my two weeks in Australia completely differently than I had spent my time in New Zealand. Instead of exploring by foot and trusting myself to find my way on my own, I travelled through the State of Queensland by car with friends. We started the trip up north in Cairns and worked our way south all the way to Brisbane. Along the way we stopped at the Great Barrier Reef and explored the many islands in the Whitsundays to swim with tropical fish and sea turtles. We were also able to take  a day trip to Fraser Island, famous for it's dingos and prestine lakes, as well as trips to the beautiful beaches in Cape Tribulation, and  saw wild salt water crocodiles in the Daintree River.
