Townsville Resorts - Reviews and Rates

We pulled for a one nighter in Townsville, then we were heading down the coast to Brisbane, We went through Ayr and for those that don't know we lived about 10 miles from Ayr when we stayed in Scotland.
We pulled in to few places on the way including Airlie Beach which was very nice. As we think we will be settling this side of the big count...

Ok, so we're all pretty much stuck in Townsville in North Queensland. They've had their worst rain for 30 years and we've survived a Cyclone, but there ain't no chance of getting outta here for the next few days at least as all the roads are flooded! So at present we're at a bit of a standstill, constantly getting wet and with absolutely nothing...

In Townsville we stay in Rowes Bay Caravan Park which is a really nice park they have loads of good facilities. Tuesday 2nd We are staying in Townsville for a couple of days, it is really hot today so we go in search of a swimming pool or something because we can't swim in the sea up here because of the sting rays. Townsville turns out to have ...

The following day, we got back in the car to head further north. The highway between Rockhampton and Mackay (the next big town) wanders inland and there is nothing there except open countryside for hundreds of miles. I did see a few kangaroos, not many but there were plenty of dead ones at the side of the road. There is a lot of road kill over h...

We go to the car rental place via a shuttle bus where after the formalities are shown the car which to me looks great but to Nic is disastrous as it's a) big, b) automatic, c) red. The guy quickly goes through the basics and then we're on the road! The rain's pretty daunting with us having to scratch our original plan of going to Mission Beach d...

Na een busrit van drie uur en Cast Away met Tom Hanks (jaja, dat is wel wat de australische bussen voor hebben op die in Nieuw Zeeland) kwam ik in Townsville aan. Door mijn plotselinge vertrek, had ik nog geen hostel geboekt, dus besloot ik de stad in te gaan en degenen die ik vanuit de bus had gezien af te lopen. Er ander meisje had al wel gebo...

On Thursday we left Mission Beach and drove to Townsville. We popped into the information centre where we got talking to the two loveliest ladies... we say popped in, we were in there about an hour and a half! The only reason we had to leave was because we were parked on double yellows outside so we had to run before we got a ticket. They were b...

Allright, I like travelpod, but I'm ready for something new. Going to try blogger out and see how that works. If it doesn't, then I'll come back here ... but for now... check out: http://kezmerized.blogspot.com/ Comments always appreciated! :-)

It's Thanksgiving! And I'm seppo... a lonely seppo... on Thanksgiving (Think the Lonely Jew South Park song...and seppo is the nickname for Americans... anywas...) This is only the third Thanksgiving I haven't spent with my family. The first was when I was in Australia 5 years ago, and I cooked a huge Thanksgiving meal for a bunch of the America...

The story was much the same the next day, a steady 100kmph for 8 hours all the way up the same **** boring road. A rolling buffet of flat, dusty featureless plains, seasoned with scant trees and half eaten roo and dingo carcasses. The caravan park was much the same too, which we plumped for just after Townsville, however it came with a pool and ...
