Woke up at 7, not sure why! Decided I might as well get up though so got up and dressed then went to look around a bit. Went to the Pharmacy to get a disposable camera, then went to the big Woolworths which was right next to the hostel which was handy! Got some drinks and breakfast stuff etc. Had text the girls to see if they were awake but Amy had the phone! I had some breakfast and chilled in the TV room. It was getting later and I wondered if the girls had gon...

Hadn't slept too well as it was soo cold, but got up and washed my hair, checked out and got some breakfast, then waited with the girls as they waited to get picked up for their skydive.

Got some breakfast and checked out then got some lunch. Got...

Saw Laura, who had been there for a week - can see how you'd want to stay, this place is amazing! Chatted to her - she's doing a scuba diving course on the island! Went and chilled by the pool and read my book then met up with the Jersey girls, Beth and Lex. Went out the front of the hostel and saw their rented car! It was a total Barbie car, pink ...

So, this was the day! Would I be leaving Airlie today or staying for at least 2 weeks? Lugged my bags to reception, got my food from the fridge, checked out and walked down to the bus stop. the driver was there and I said who I was and he said there were 3 free seats! Everyone else was on the bus so before I knew it we were driving away from Airlie. Had loved my time there but did feel like I was ready to go so felt okay :-) The girl I at next to was pretty rude ...
