We saw different kinds of fishes and beautiful coral （珊瑚）.All of them are just in front of me, not a photo! 刷外刊 返回目录 7 A Day Trip to Fraser Island Fraser Island is the world's largest sand island. The best way of exploring this island is by 4WD （四轮驱动汽车）, so we joined a small group for a tour. It was a busy but exciting day, with plenty of chances for swimming. We also experienced several hours of exciting driving over the sandy roads. At times, it was __________ to believe that we were on an island made of sand. Forests have grown well and the scenery is certainly a lot more beautiful than what I first expected! 刷外刊 返回目录 8 Walking on the Blue Mountains We made an overnight visit to the Blue Mountains. Forests of eucalyptus （桉树）, with their special blue haze （薄雾）, were interspersed（点缀） with wonderful waterfalls and rocks, and with the coral reef earlier in the trip, there were times when I couldn't quite believe that what I was seeing was real!
