Australia is HUGE!

We are currently at the top of our tour of the East Coast, almost 1,300 miles from Sydney, in the tropical paradise that is Airlie Beach, the gateway to the Whitsunday Islands and The Great Barrier Reef.  It is hot, it is humid and short, sharp and heavy rain showers are testing the door seals of the ageing campervan.  Free WiFi is pretty scarce in Australia, hence the lack of blog posts.  Expect a few photographs soon, along with the full run down of our long drive up here.  We've battled armies of mosquitoes, come face to face with enormous hissing beetles, gazed in awe as a large cloud of thousands of giant fruit bats swept over the beach we were camped on, and watched a troop of kangaroos bound through our camping pitch and disappear into the bush as we sat eating breakfast.
