After leaving Atherton tableland we headed some 550km on to “Bouwen” which is close to the famous Whitsundays Islands. We had booked there a studio at the “Whitsundays Beach Resort” on a peninsula with the pacific ocean and beaches on both sides, but not on the actual Whitsundays of course. We arrived late and had… Weiterlesen Australia – Eastcoast: Beaches, Sharks and (no) Koalas
Once back in the harbour and the dive center, we picked up our remaining luggage and the driver of the center brought us to the airport where we had finally no problems to get our rental car, with Budget this time, and a small Toyota C-HR instead of a large Mitsubishi.

And then had a nice bath in one of the two… Weiterlesen New Zealand – South Island 2/2
Travelling back in time again, we arrived in the middle of the afternoon at Queenstown Airport where we picked up our rental car – again at Europcar, like in Chile. We had rented a somewhat bigger car to be able to get all our three suitcases into the trunk so that you cant see them… Weiterlesen New Zealand – South Island 1/2
