Earlie Beach and The Golden Plover

Earlie Beach is a little town with about 1.300 people, in Queensland, Australia, along the Whitsunday Coast. It's the gateway to the unparalleled Whitsunday Islands and the Great Barrier Reef. It's very popular with backpackers... and I was one of them! After arriving in the famous locality, I spent a couple of days relaxing and having a look around, trying to find out what could interest me in the area. I simply loved the feeling of being careless free, fortunate to be in this superb part of the world. One day, I do not remember if I was in a backpacker or in a pub, I saw an advertisement on the wall that unchained my imagination. The image of wonderful tall ship with all its sails unfurled appeared in front of me. A comment said that being on it would have been an adventure of a life time experience. It was about a week cruise around the Whitsundays, a collection of 74 continental islands in the North-East Coast of Queensland. I was hooked. I knew that I...

10 Things To Lookout For Before Climbing Mt Kilimanjaro

10. Choose the Route and Season carefully There are seven established routes to the summit, but most climbers pick among three. The Rongai route takes six to seven days and approaches the mountain from the east. Compared to the other two, this route lacks the scenic factor. The Machame Route charges up the southern flank of the peak in six to seven days and has good views of the mountain. The Lemosho Route is a scenic journey up the long western ridge of the mountain and relatively new, lasting from seven to nine days and has a high success rate. Remember, fewer than half the climbers who attempt a five-day ascent successfully make the summit, so choose wisely. There are two rainy seasons on Kilimanjaro - March through to end of May and November through to February. The south is wetter than the northern slopes, making the Rongai route a favourite during the rainy months. Typically rain is less prevalent above 3,000m, which means you are only likely to experience rain on Day 1...
