Noosa Love-Part one (New edit)

Okay, so I didn't really like the old post of Noosa, So I'm doing it again.
So where do I start...
I could start with Perth airport, Krassy and I had to walk across the tarmac to board the rear end of our aircraft because we were situated in the back of the plane. We both had the idea to capture some footage of the aircraft whilst we were on the tarmac. You know, up close and personal with a huge plane.

Bad idea, very bad idea, one of the staff members on the tarmac came running up to Krassy and myself screaming at the top of her lungs! Shouting at us how we could interfere with the planes signals or something. All I know is, it scared the shit out of me, some crazy lady running full speed at us yelling at the top of her lungs. Every one around was looking, Krassy and I from then on were pretty red in the face and embarrassed so we stayed quiet until the plane took off into the night.

Anyways, It took a whole night to get to Brisbane airport. You know, time difference and all. We pulled into Brisbane airport around 5.30 AM and we were so tired. Gathered our luggage together, collected our boards and wondered around the airport until we found an exit. Krassy thought it would be a good idea to call Matt. Matt was kind enough to take us in under his wing and accommodate us for the duration of our stay.

As soon as we unloaded our shit into Matt's Crib

(I class his house as a hotel, It was fucking huge!)
The first thing he did was chuck our boards in the car and took us to the points for a surf.

Because it was school holidays, it was kinda crowded. Not to worry though, Myself and Krassy were just frothing because we were in Noosa! Walking to the points is crazy! You walk through a national wildlife park and you see all kinds of shit like wild turkeys through to koalas, giant lizards, massive spider webs and even the occasional tourist(thousands!)

We rocked up to Tea-trees and it was pretty crowded, some really shred able waves coming through. To my surprise, Julian Wilson was out there doing his thing amongst the crowd.

(Not Noosa)

Matt, Krassy, and Myself made a group decision to keep on walking to Granit which is the next point around. It was bigger, less crowded, and the best fun Iv'e had in my life. Every one in the line up was so nice, no one was hassling, every one was chatting, and every one was getting good waves.

After the surf, We went back to Matt's hotel and his mum cooked us up the best lunch, Chicken wraps and chicken sandwiches!

(Delicious!)
The next couple of days we just surfed. Solid 6-7 hour sessions were going down and it was so incredible! When the swell got a bit smaller we surfed the open beaches. Alexandria bay, and Sunshine beach. A-Bay was my favourite, good banks and no crowds.

It's a 15 minute walk to A-Bay so it stays nice and quiet, the only downside is that its a nude beach. It wouldn't be bad if young females hung out but that's far from the truth. The only nudes were 40 year old dudes, Pretty disgusting actually. But apart from that we got some all time waves.



The sun got pretty warm on the beach so we tried every thing to stay out of the heat. We ended up building a shelter, but it didn't really work too well.

(our set-up)
By the end of the day it started to fall apart, at least we tried our best :)

After the surf we chilled on the beach for a little bit and went crab hunting!

(Biggest crab we found)
Time to leave the beach. Committed the 40 minute walk back to Hastings street, sorest body afterwards.
