Magnetic Island was good fun, we joined up with the Oz bus again and got to do a koala walk with them, although we didn't see any! We also did some kyacking, but we just sat and blobbed in the sea!!

We also drove through Innisfail which was directly where it hit and the place was in ruins, trees down everywhere, houses all colapsed, banana trees all fallen down, peopl...
