Noosa

We stayed in the very nice Bella casa apartments on Hastings Street, which had a very unusual use of space, a small cupboard like area along one of the corridors had a roller shutter covering it which when pulled up had 2 bunkbeds neatly tucked in!

It was nice sitting outside on the balcony for breakfast every morning.

We walked around the National Park and saw a Koala and 2 brown snakes luckily they were quite small and only interested in sliding off the path! However just after seeing the second snake a piece of bush brushed my leg and I jumped out of my skin! (very ferocious eucalyptus they have in Noosa!) The picture is of another of the animals we saaw on our walk a rather large lizard.

Along the walk to Sunshine Beach were a number of idyllic beaches that we stopped and rested on. There was some rather unusual and unexpected wildlife on one of the beaches....the nudists (they always seem to be men, with hands on hips striding around!)

If you are going to ever do this walk I suggest carrying more water (ie more than 2 litres!) and snacks than we had with us, we staggered into Sunshine beach and both drank our bodyweight in water and munched our way through some of the great cafes there!
