Schippert On Easter weekend we (ten people in a 4 * 4 Jeep) a ferry across the biggest hotbed of tiger and hammerhead sharks around the world on the largest sand island in the world.
Welcome to Fraser Iceland!
the east coast of the island is accessible and mutated - it can ebb and flow of - an El Dorado and Highway benzinverprassende for four-wheel vehicles. Baden is on this 80-kilometer Beach strictly prohibited sharks, people have known enough to eat. But who wants to dabble even ten meters away from the highway?
more like this - the Caribbean in freshwater version. Fraser has 250 freshwater lakes, the most famous of these is Lake Mackenzie, whose water to 98 percent of drinking water quality has. It is forbidden to enter this river with sun cream. The trick, I have to date from Melbourne to Fraser Iceland drunk still not as good tasting water.
May I introduce? This is Trefor, floor layers from Swansea, Wales. Trefor has among others the plush carpeting in the bedroom of Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas laid. The model used he called, before realizing, "Zeta-Jones" and since then hot cakes. One of the reasons why he stays here in Australia. Trefor luggage fits in a plastic bag. He is living proof that every second word may be "fucking" and you can still talk to each other. Together we walked around this natural spectacle. spent
The nights we protected by a sand dune in our tent about 70 yards from the beach. The alarm clock beeped on time shortly before six, this sight were aiming to miss anyone.
far from the first of our Schlafstaette stranded in the 19th century, this passenger ship. Zig people squandered vast amounts of money to salvage the vessel of this inhospitable place. No one has succeeded, now it is a tourist attraction.
without a shower, back as a half man sand at Rainbow Beach, I set out next day fresh shower after 1770th
christened by Captain Cook dances, not just this village its name from the series.
The Australian Government has decided around this tiny town and its equally pathetic neighbor, Agnes Water to advance to the sprawling mass tourism the bolt. 160km national park area on the coast 100km south and north will do so forever.
1770 live from the air
In 1770 a few hundred people. Three years ago in this area would only lead to a dirty gravel road and you had to cross four rivers coming from the last hole. There is no doctor here for two years to receive television people since the Olympics - not since Rome 1960, Sydney since 2000!
As you can imagine, are activities here cheaper than anywhere else on the east coast. had
this opportunity, I make use simple. One day I went kayaking Sail in this real beautiful area ...
a Jet Ski Ride was included. Madness ... A few seconds after that were snapshot of the driver and myself in the water.
waiting for me on my birthday a very special experience.
A two hour, over bumpy boat ride (Kotzrate 50 percent, I was very, very close to it) brought me to the Great Barrier Reef. More specifically, in the tiny, only by trees, spiders, birds and turtles inhabited Lady Musgrave Iceland.
First Programme: snorkeling in the Reef
It was like a Tuesday evening at ORF 2 Universe in a different way, this time tutschnass rather than lounging on the couch - a truly indescribable experience. Fish, as thin as a sheet of paper, or so huge that you could swallow this fortunately peaceful giant. Huge turtles, which are not at all shy and on the heels can come to pass if they seem bored cruising through the water ...
with underwater photos, I can not come up, unfortunately. In this photo you can see but the Reef. Where the water turns dark, begins the eighth wonder of the world. What is happening at this point in the water is just very hard to put into words.
Second Programme: Walk on Lady Musgrave Iceland
The reason is the only island of coral and sand.
Then move these tiny people ...
mini turtles, just hatched from the egg and straight on the road towards the sea ...
What you see here, the beginning of an incredible journey - a 30-50 year-long odyssey. The Turtle is immersed into the water, gets awkward after a meter air and controls the direction Neusseeland to once arrived there - and still not out of breath - next to the coast of South America! to swim. Round trip, she spends 30-50 years. She then spins back here in their place of birth, to spend the last years of her life.
