Townsville

Don't have any photos from Cairns, sorry, there was a cyclone so couldn't do much of anything during the day. I met Roberta at Gilligans in Cairns and we decided to ditch the city and head down to Townsville and go to Magnetic Island the next day. Since the weather was nice we headed straight for the beach, getting in the water I was curious as to why the ground felt grassy, but with Roberta's encouragement I decided to keep swimming anyway. About five minuites later a local looks at us like we've grown a second head and told us that you're not supposed to swim in the ocean here because of crocodiles and stingers. I had never gotten out of the water so fast.
