Roadtrip: The long haul from Yeppoon to Airlie Beach

November 4th, 2011 by alex

The only highway heading north in Queensland is only 2 lanes wide. If something goes wrong then you just have to wait.  People had been stopped on the highway for 6 hours due to a oil tanker crash, luckily we had a 4 wheel drive car and we were able to sneak onto the old highway and by pass miles and miles of cars to be third in line when the road finally opened. Good thing we weren’t in a hurry!

 Miles and miles and miles

 Nasty spill!

 We made it into Sarina Beach for a quick rest. The beach wasn’t at its best as the coral spawn was making it a bit stinky…
