The Yacht Club on Hamilton Island.

This is on Trent's wish list for Father's Day!

As you can see we didn't have a bright sunshiny day that we would have wished for when visiting the Islands, but we made the most of the overcast conditions that we did have. Trent & Krista have decided that Hamilton Island is a place we'd like to visit again without the kids - just so we can sit back and relax at one of the lovely resorts that are on the Island. We managed to get a bus tour around Hamilton Island which was interesting, even the late George Harrison still has a place on the Island!

After visiting Hamilton we got another ferry/boat to Whitsunday Island and the location of Whitehaven Beach. We had a great BBQ lunch on the boat before being asked to get off the front of the boat into the water and onto the beach! The kids thought this was great fun! We had a great afternoon on Whitehaven Beach, they are right about the sand, its so soft and white! Again, if the weather had have been better it would have made for better pic's but we had a great time anyway! There were plenty of activities for us to do, the crew that came on the beach with us from the boat brought with them the buckets and spades, lots of ball games, beach cricket, volley ball were just some of the things we could do. Mostly we spent our time in the water or just near it. The kids were soooo tired by the end of the day, Maurice and Felicity fell asleep on the bus on the way back to the caravan park!

The view up the beach, we were near the south end of the beach which is located on the east side of Whitsunday Island.

Anyway, that's it for this blog.
Love The Guye Gang! xo
