On the road again today. We said our goodbyes to our friends, and got on the Greyhound bus heading to townsville which took a few hours. Once we got there we had to get a ferry over to Magnetic Island which is where we were staying next. We checked in to Base Hostel, it seemed pretty big and quite busy and we bumped in to Ciara from Fraser Island. Our room was in a little hut with six beds, and we had Vicky and Dave in our room too. The rooms were really warm and...

We headed for the famous Whitsunday Islands National Park which had the most beau...

We met up with our friend Yael in the morning who we knew from Fraser Island as she was on our Whitsunday's boat we were going on today. Yael brought a Welsh girl called Danielle along who she had met in the hostel and was also coming on our boat. We went to a liquor store to stock up for our trip as there was no alcohol sold on the boat. We decided to grab a taxi down to the harbour, although we were only allowed to take small bags with us, we weren't sure how ...
