Sailing around the Whitsundays Islands...
Hey hey,
Well, as you should all know from the email the other day, we are heading home soon...just three more weeks of living out of a backpack, and then it's back to Canada. The culture shock is going to be something wicked, I'm sure. However, I have no doubt that copious coffee sessions at Tim's while catching up with long lost friends will go far to assage the weirdness of being back home:)
In meantime, we still have about two weeks in the wonderous and wonderful land of Oz and man are we ever enjoying the last legs of this amazing vacation. As I noted in my last blog, Cairns and the Great Barrier Reef was amazing. I thought nothing could match that water and weather, but the Whitsunday Islands were just as awesome. We went on a 3 day, 2 night sailing trip around the Whitsundays and it was surreal it was so beautiful. Yet another cool crew of people on the boat with us made it even better. The water was turquoise blue and the sand was pure white and so soft it felt like flour or icing sugar under our feet. Such a rough life I lead, eh? Sleeping on board the sail boat was a fantastic experience as well.
Check out these photos of the water and the beaches:

- Can you believe there really is water this colour?
