Day 1: we arrived! It was an okay flight although the process of getting off from Brisbane was delayed which was (as you would expect) frustrating. Delay me going home dammit!
We checked in at 2pm and went off to explore the resort area and for a quick swim at catseye beach before a sunset sail. Unfortunately….no sunset due to cloud cover
The view from our room at the reef view hotel is amazing.
Day 2: was a lounge around day. We had complimentary breakfast with the koalas and then basically just vegged out in the pool area and kept the bar busy 🙂
For dinner we went on a twilight cruise on the Denison Star. Delicious! Shame anther sunset was obscured by cloud cover…
Day 3: today we slept in and then had breakfast with the koalas again (those guys are awesome) before preparing to adventure out to Whitehaven Beach. Unfortunately this was cancelled due to the wind so we went back to the pool for more relaxing and cocktails. B had a go at paddle boarding which was equal parts hilarious (when he fell off) and unhappy making (motion sickness). We then went off to One Tree Hill bar to try again for the sunset but…cloud cover! Haha. Thwarted at every turn!
Tomorrow we are off to the Great Barrier Reef for a full day of snorkelling!
