Gday from Townsville. Well, we have been here quite a while now and we absolutely love it. It makes such a difference actually living somewhere for a while, and not travelling around, because you get to know the area and the locals and do and see things that you would normally miss when you just pass through. Townsville has so much to offer, from the Strand, to the Billabong, to the beautiful Magnetic Island! I think its something to do with the weather, but ever...

We are having a good time here, doing some shopping, seeing the sites etc. I really love our van, but its nice to have a room again and a bed!!
