Got the Greyhound on Wednesday morning from Mission Beach. We watched the latest Batman film on the bus which was awesome and then I had a little sleep. Arrived in Townsville at 1pm on Wednesday afternoon with Jane. We caught the ferry across to Magnetic Island and headed to our accomodation, Bungalow Bay, situated in the heart of the rainforest.
