Day 24!
"Jackaroo, you've done it again!"
We loaded ol' Jackarooski onto a huge barge and cruised over to Frasier Island.
The island is 4 wheel drive vehicles only, there are no roads.
The east beach (75 mile beach) is the 'highway'.
Some of the nastiest off roading trails I have ever seen, and old Jacky has so far been up to the challenge.
We actually pulled this German family out of the sand when they got their truck stuck.
Justin has yelled "Jackaroo, you've done it again!" about 300 times so far today.
Very scenic, there are rainforests, freshwater lakes, red sand dunes, it's a weird but fastinating place.
We found a protective dune to park behind and set up camp.
Justin slept in the truck, I had a picture perfect hammock spot picked out, but got violently rained on at 2:30 in the morning.
