Day 12 - Rainbow Beach

the red dot on my eye has gotten lighter but also bigger...

Day 12 - Rainbow Beach

wake up at 5:30 am to catch my 7 am train. packing was miserable since it was still dark and i was trying not to make too much noise and wake the others up. kinda hard when your on the top bunk of a squeky bunk bed. met a cool girl from the states at the train station and we talk on the bus ride till she gets off at Noosa. Sweet girl who is in new zealand teaching, currentl traveling australia, originally from D.C. and is no at school in Montana. She is an avid snow boarder...rad. On the way to rainbow beach we almost leave a girl at the rest stop. this bus thing can be tricky. A bunch of people get off at Rainbow Beach and we get hearding into the hostel litterally across the street. An employee gives us the run down of the town the schedule and about 1 of 3 prep sessions were going to have for Fraser Island. Since this is a self guided tour that give us a ridiculous amount of information and stress caution w/ the trucks. It got to the point where i was scared to drive the thing for worry of fucking something up. Don't get salt water under the body, lock the hubs when on the island, H2, H4, L4... stop it already let's just get there and party. i met my dorm mates and we decide to be on the same group. our group seems friendly enough but kinda of quite not sure if they'll be fun to party with. night is reletively chill enjoy $10 jugs of beer and play some pool with the guys. Apparently the place closes early like at 10. And since there is nothing to do in this small as town (not even 1 bar) we are pretty much restricted to the night life of the hostel. bummer. meet a fun group from australia while playing pool. Then security makes his precense known. mentions closing time in a not friendly way to one of the aussies. the aussie guy jokes back. and the security guy snaps back at him raising is voice and shaking his hand violently. the rest of the night the ausie is ripping this guy a new one. the security guard is short and stubby. the ausie starts calling him danny, short for danny devito. the aussie guy is hilarious. the group smokes me out in front of the hostel and i hit the sack.
