Well we arrived in Mission Beach with the hope of doing a sky dive (well Aldo and Lee did) however the weather was against us so we had to just have a day of chilling out in the hostel, which to be honest was one of the best we have stayed in. It was more like a big house and felt very homely. Mission beach is just a tiny little town about 4 hours south of Cairns. Seriously it makes Anstruther look like New York...its just one road, with one bar, one cafe, one ...

Well guys to be honest, there is nothing much to write about the reef as the pictures really do speak for themselves. We got picked up from our hostel at 7.30am and it took us 2 hours to get to the first dive sight. Unfortunately, Aldo was not allowed to do the dive because of his epilepsy, so he was only allowed to snorkel. After our first dive and lunch Lee and I decided that we HAD to do the optional second afternoon dive!! The only thing we can say is the pi...

We booked all our East Coast trip through Peterpans which included our scuba dive which is why we heade...

Well its been a wee while since we updated so here's the low down! We have now left Deception Bay and have moved into our very own apartment!

On Sunday Lee and I met up with Nick and Leisha and they took ...

Well we are just back from a weekend in Brisbane. We had a fab time meeting up with Shaun and his girlfriend Carol. We caught the train from Morayfield into Brisbane and checked into an apartment in Kangaroo point on Thursday. Then we met up with Shaun and Carol and went for a chinese, mmmmm!! On Friday we met up with Shaun & Carol and decided to just have a wander around the city on foot (obviously stopping at a couple of pubs during the day!) Then we went...
