Hey Guys. We've spent the last couple of days on MAgnetic Island. Magnetic Island is off the coast of Townsville and has loads of undisterbed tropical forest and wildlife. We took the bus from Airlie to Townsville on wednesday and then hopped on a ferry to Magnetic. Our hostel is really nice, it's set right on the edge of the forest. We had a few jugs of beer included in our stay so we enjoyed them and met up with Sarah and Kerry again (from Airlie Beach.) Yes...

When we checked in we were suprisd to see Lucy, a girl we met in Fiji, behind the desk of reception, we didn't even know she wor...

Hi Everyone How's snowy England treating you all?? We have been in Surfers Paradise for the last three nights (and yes, that is the name of the actual town), staying in the hottest hostel ever!! Luckily we didn't spend much time there, just enough for some shut eye! The last two days we have spent at Florida style theme parks! Monday we spent all day at Warner Bros. Movie World and yesterday we were at Sea World.Movie World was brilliant, except that one of the...
