Finally some pictures from our 3 week trip to Australia! The major cities we visited where to Perth and Brisbane. On the East Coast we explored beautiful and tropical Queensland. We went to the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Glass House Mountains, and Lady Elliot Island in the Great Barrier Reef. It was an amazing trip! My favorite so far. I LOVED Queensland. Amazing beaches, lush sub tropical rainforest, wild koalas, the Great Barrier Reef. Need I say more? We had an incredible adventure and I got to cross one off the bucket list: scuba diving at the Great Barrier Reef. I even saw a sea turtle! Luka got to snorkel at the Great Barrier Reef and a reef on the West Coast at Trigg Beach. Luka got to spend time with second cousins as well.
