Chard gets a haircut.....

.....only joking! It's Magnetic Island really, but I bet you all looked at this one first!

As we'd missed the 6.20am bus we had to get a later one and after a short ferry ride from Townsville we finally arrived on Magnetic Island about 6pm. Didn't do much that evening as we were feeling a little curly.

The next day though we hired a little open top jeep thingy and went and picked up Claire and had a little drive round the Island. It was only a little island so it didn't take long. We spent the day lazing on the beach, walking and hooning around in our jeep! We did a walk up to the highest point on the island and were rewarded with fantastic views as well as seeing a couple of Koalas in the wild :-) and a snake, but I don't know what sort.

That was pretty much it as we only had 2 nights there, we left early the next day for our bus to Cairns which took up the best part of the day. When we arrived in Cairns we said bye to Claire and arranged to meet up with here again in Sydney, then found ourselves a bed for the night.
