Happy Australia Day from Fraser Island
Happy Australia Day to you all. I hope today was kind to you. Hubby and I decided to put the boat in the water and head out to our happy place, Fraser Island.
We'd been waiting all across my Christmas break to go camping there, but the universe conspired against us everytime we wanted to go away. What the universe was telling me was to get your bloody boob checked Donna. I'd had my bi-annual mammogram referral (but i didnt find the lump till a week afterwards!) Anyway, despite a really crappy looking start to the day, sitting around waiting for rain/showers to ease, cutting my toenails, we finally saw it clear, and we headed off.
Friends of ours were already about half an hour ahead of us, and we popped in to say hi. For some reason today, I felt very emotional again. Whether it was the good old Aussie pride coming through, whether its getting closer to surgery (1 week and 2 days) I don't know. But instead of joining them all, after a quick chat we headed further along, avoiding the crowds.
We found a beautiful spot just down from Kingfisher Resort. Not a soul around (apart from a few marsh flies and a mass of native bees who apparently thought we were yummy) This was what i needed, connecting back with nature, the beach, the ocean and mother nature/s creatures. Not gonna lie, there may have been a little skinny dipping incident as well. Well, until a small aircraft flew over and a mad scramble was done!
