Wanggoolba Creek, Fraser Island!

Today I received a postcard from the Official Postcrossing.com site. AU-391005, my 961st official Postcrossing postcard. It was sent by Sharkz on 20 November 2014 and travelled 10867 miles in 6 days. It is a view of Wanggoolba Creek, Fraser Island in Australia, a UNESCO WHS. It was inscribed onto the list in 1992, reference #630.

Wanggoolba Creek, Fraser Island 

Fraser Island lies just off the east coast of Australia. At 122 kilometres long, it is the largest sand island in the world. Majestic remnants of tall rainforest growing on sand and half the world’s perched freshwater dune lakes are found inland from the beach. The combination of shifting sand-dunes, tropical rainforests and lakes makes it an exceptional site.
