Noosa and Underwater World

Noosa and Underwater World

So on Tuesday 21st October, we went on a mission to see some Koalas. After 7 weeks here, we still haven't seen any! Last time we were in Australia, we found a couple up at Noosa, which is a world-famous surf spot and all round beautiful place with an amazing national park. Noosa is only a short bus ride away from us, so we went up there on a Koala search. Unfortunately, this tme around, we did not see any Koalas despite trekking 5 miles through dense Eucalyptus forest. However, we did have a great time in an amazing place.

 National Park trails. We walked from the small box in the top right corner, along the blue trail, then back along the orange trail, then down through the yellow trail.

Despite not seeing Koala's, it was some small consolation to drive past a couple of kangaroos on the way back!

On the Thursday, Charlotte finally took me to her workplace and we had a good explore around Underwater World!
