... he did ‘ad lib’ a little when it came to which order he said ‘wallet, iPod, phone’ when asking departing passengers to check not to leave anything behind! He also became amusingly annoyed when the microphone started to play up.

Arriving into Townsville around 18:00, I checked-in to the Jupiter’s Hotel (and casino…) and caught a ‘football special’ bus to watch North Queensland Fury (for whom Robbie Fowler is the captain and ...

... Cairns to Townsville to see him. This problem has only come about because we've already booked everything up until Cairns when we will hopefully be staying with Laura's Cousin Mark. After walking back along the beach we meet up with the lads and told them about our plans for the evening, which involved going to see a local pass time of toad racing. They were up for it as well so we all caught the bus later to the arena, not really knowing what to expect ...

... blog writing, washing and in LJ's case sleeping, been giving her lots of drugs and hopefully she'll feel better soon. We headed into town for some food tonight as we passed a Mexican Bar that had a special on a Tuesday, all you can eat Chilli for $10. It was really tasty as well but sadly I only managed 1 plateful as I had to finish LJ's dinner as well, think her stomach is shrinking because I normally end up eating hers as well which I ...

... keeping these areas for holidays! We had to pull in at a free camp, with a massive area for the kids to run wild for an hour or two before dinner.

The next day we were heading for Bundaberg, we had been told that it was a good place to live so thought it was worth a look. It was ok but i don't think we will be living there so we were off again.

... damage AND a credit card surcharge of 2%. I am glad to see the back of these thieving so and so's (would swear here but think my parents might be reading this!) and also hope to get a decent night’s sleep outside of the van as I seem to spend half my nights either listening to hideous night-time sounds from outside or dealing with toilet smells (or worse) from inside the van!

Finally on our way to Townsville, to get the 6.05pm ferry to ...

... hadn't really seen anything like it before either but he wanted to put him on his operating list for today. So we went for an ultrasound scan which showed that the sore was full of blood vessels. The issue was that it had got so big that he though they may have to do a skin graft to close it after it was removed. If that was the case he would have to be in hospital for 2 weeks. It was ...

... briefly with Cousin Dan. then we went to Ayr to See Annu and Andreas. Finally got to Townsville 5:30pm. Was a very long boring trip. the kids weren't on thier best behaviour that day but it was long.. Isaac also started to get his dizzies

Day 3

up reasonably early as the kids were all excited to be spending the day with thier ...

... managed in the end although we
could smell burning from the clutch as he had to reverse and go forward to
straighten numerous times.  We are
right by the airport and apparently the RAAF have been having some night
training flights so we will see if we are disturbed in the night tonight. Our
position is at the front corner and during the early evening we were visited by
numerous dogs and their owners off for walks - so that was ...

... settled on a backpackers which was close to the station and very central, but we still had to phone a number on the front door because the person in charge had also buggered off early!

He gave us the combination to ...

... rundt inden vi tog tilbage paa hostelet for at faa en enkelt drink og saa i seng.
Drengene og de andre tog fra oen efter vores 2. nat hvor vi stadig havde 3 naetter tilbage. Den ene af naetterne boede vi et permanent telt - helt vild hyggeligt og den sidste nat boede vi paa et anden hostel. Der boede vi ogsaa i bungalows, det var samme sted hvor vi havde vaeret oppe og holde alle dyrene nogen dage for inden.
Vi kom ...
