Something lurking on the rocks at Wategoes Bay. Salamander or Skink?

Misty North NSW. A nice change from the techno-blue skies of Queensland, don't you think? 

Noosa: a longboard and a shortboard join our cramped campervan

These dogs can't afford a jet ski to pull them out into the surf, so they use their good-for-nothing owner.


Raz's board.


Digs surfing Noosa point.





Noosa headland: Boiling Pot Bay.


Tea Tree Bay: amazing, if slightly antiseptic, smell. 

Tin Can Bay: snack time for dolphins



There used to be plenty of dugongs around here before the forestry commission plied the land with petro chemicals. These leached into the water and 600-700 dugongs were washed up on these shores.



Ever since an injured dolphin was nursed back to life here in the 50s, they have been swimming out into Hervey Bay and squeaking to their mates about the free food in Tin Can Bay. They're now on the 3rd generation of Indo-Pacific Hump back dolphins.
