Day 19 - Frazer island

We woke up at 7am in order to have breakfast and be at 8am in the bus – we were not late this time! In fact, the annoying point in the tour was a tight schedule to see things with a very strict timing. We went straight to the lake MacKenzie, which is a damp of pure raining water with a bottom made of 98.5% silica sand, which means that the sand was very white and the water pure. The weather being sunny, without any cloud in the sky, the lake was perfectly blue. We arrived the first ones and had two hours to swim in the water which was quite warm. After that we ate lunch at the resort at 12pm and headed then to lake Wabby, which is a green lake surrounded half by a forested hill and half by a sandy hill. We needed 45mn to walk there and swam with big cat fishes. We went back to the 4WD bus at 3.15pm, stopped quickly at the resort and finally drove back to the port, which was actually just a clearing in the bush. We arrived at the car at 6pm, got beer, food and bait, and then I went fishing until 9.30pm. We had a barbecue close to the pier and headed off to Tin Can bay. We arrived at the camp site at midnight, settled down the small tent to gain time and to pack up quicker in the morning to see the dolphins before 8am.
