After 15 hours through the night ive arrived at Rainbow Beach, a 30km stretch of white sand about two and a half hours north of Brisbane. The town is very small and there doesn't seem to be much going on, it appears to be mainly used as a hopping point over to Fraiser island, where i will head on the 27th.

Anyway, i believe its Christmas tomorrow so i will take this opportunity to wish you all an enjoyable day. As fun as it sounds basking in the sun next to the Pacific. There is definitely something to be missed in sitting in front of the fire in your new socks, consuming vast amounts of port and cheese. Enjoy. Merry Christmas all.
