Hamilton Island, Australia





















Josh and I just spent a lovely 3-day holiday in the Whitsundays on Hamilton Island. It was an unbelievable experience and words will not do it justice.
Some of the highlights: helicopter ride onto the island, chasing wallabies through the resort, massage and pedicure at the spa, trip on the dinghy to fish for reef fish, picnic on sandy bay, hike to the long island pier, sea turtle watching, waking up to a beautiful beach front sunrise, resting on the porch hammock, playing scrabble, battleship and various Australian board games (one game was named Tipayatung)

As we were leaving the resort, we brushed shoulders with Pink and her boyfriend who were staying at the resort before her Sydney tours begin. I had ro explain who she was to Josh as we boarded the boat to leave.

We had an incredible time and are already planning our next trip.
