Day 36 - Hervey Bay



OMG - Best day today!  Bucky took us out on his boat and we were pretty excited when we saw a Southern Right Whale and then even more excited when we saw two humpbacks and they came right up to us!  They popped their heads out of the water and looked at us, and waved at us with their fins, wet us with water from their spout and blew a big bubble underneath us.  They kept swimming around us and right underneath the boat.  It was so amazing!   Went and anchored just off Fraser Island for lunch before heading back.  Saw two more whales on the way back - very cool!!

Came back and the kids rode their bikes along the beach to the waterpark which wasn't operating, so back to the playground where they played and Ian and I relaxed with a coffee.
