Queensland

Our first stop in Queensland was Brisbane. We had a beautiful airbnb with pool and a lovely family. The weather in Brisbane was not the best, a bit overcast and very hot and sticky. We had a great time in Brisbane and it's such a cool and modern city. After a few days we got a plane to Proserpine, picked up the hire car and headed for Airlie beach. Unfortunately our time here in paradise was to be hit by a cyclone. We did spend the whole of one day in our hotel room. I managed to go on a crocodile safari and unfortunately we only saw small baby or one year old crocs. Bit disappointing, but it was still a good day. We did do a couple of little walks and got to see kangaroos, wallabies, platypus and lots of birds. Our final stop was Mackay and we had the chance to visit an old friend of mine, James. We had a great couple of days and our airbnb was amazing. I taught Maddie how to play snooker on our own full size table. Our last night in Mackay was spent drinking a fair amount with James, his family and friends. Despite the weather, we still had a great time in Queensland.Read more
