Whitsunday and Wallabies

Whitehaven Beach, Whitsunday Island

My life is complete. This day has been greater than any dream I could have ever had. We woke up early for a full complimentary breakfast, finally something is free in Australia! Than we boarded Camira and sailed, snorkeled and sunbathed our way through the Whitsunday Islands. We stopped at Whitehaven Beach which is made of 95% silica. This beach was unbelievable, the sand felt like powdery flour and was a great exfoliator. After spending some time on the beach we boarded again and sailed the rest of the day. Laying in the nets of a catamaran and using only sails to move through the water is an experience of itself. To be at such peace on the open water with no sounds but the wind catching, it is truly majestic.

Look at the baby wally! Outside our hotel room on Daydream Island

I’ve sailed through the Carribean and Australia and this was the trip to write home about. CruiseWhitsundays has created the perfect daytrip experience. I just can’t say how impressed I was by the crews passion for the ship or their playful banter to one another, it made for an incredibly fun day. AND to make my day even better, we went out to see the wild wallabies (correction from yesterdays post, these are rock wallabies) and we fed them! The momma wallaby came over and ate from my hand with baby in pouch! Than papa came over, let me feed him and pet under his chin and chest! Yay I love 

wallabies J Tomorrow we are flying to Brisbane. I’m so sad to leave Daydream Island, they have been so good to us. If you’re ever in Northern Australia it’s a must to visit Daydream Island and cruise on Camira.

P.S. My sea rocking self has kicked in while writing this, oie am I back on the boat?
