As you probably gathered from the photo, we didnt find any fruit picking work, despite a good driving tour of the nearby farms! Without a visa nobody wanted us, and think it was nearing the end of the season anyway. So what else but to go to the beach (one thing we have become particularly good at!). Bowen had some beautiful beaches, a favourite with old people, and one couple was kind enough to lend me a snorkel so I saw some more amazing fish pretty much right on the shore! We only stayed one night, then moved on to Townsville.
In the morning we as advised, went to lake Woby and I took the plunge and had a good swim, but again there where only a couple of us brave enough to stand the cold. Me and Catherine also went Sand Surfing and showed up some of the boys with our skills. lol After which we went back to the beach house for lunch, swapped buses and then drove down and caught the ferry to the mainland, on the way we stopped and took in rainbow beach and drove along in on the way back to Noosa. There I caught the bus to Airlie Beach.
