Magnetic Island... It's so attractive! Har har.

Hey Y'all!

Just a quick post as I've only 5mins left!

Well our last night in Airlie Beach was very naughty - I drank a lot. But luckily we managed to get the morning bus to Townsville on time! Wasn't feeling great, the ferry ride to Magnetic Island didn't help! The island is named so because when Captain Cook sailed past it in 1770 his compass went beserk, and it's never been explained. Just in case you're interested! We got here safe and sound though, and I slept for the majority of the afternoon. The hostel is really nice - sat right on the beach - and we've managed to swindle the 'Sanctuary' Dorms - girls only, with air-con and cosy bedding!

Anyway, at present we are in Arcadia, a small village on the island, waiting to hear the verdict on whether or not we'll be going out to do a scuba dive - it's a bit choppy so it may be cancelled :o(

Chances are I'll post again later on today!

ps. Saw Bolton playing Middlesborough at the Reebok on the telly in the bar on our last night in Airlie Beach - made me feel dead homesick! :o(
