Helo there. Well I ahve been on Magnetic Island for a couple of days. This is an Island off Townsville. Its realy nice with lush rainforest all throughout. Went for a walk called the Forts Walk as the track goes past all the old remains of the gun shelters and gun enforcemnts that were in place during the war. Its also good place to see Koalas in the wild and yes I spotted 3. So cute, like cuddely teddy bears. Its a pretty laid back islnd and the hostel youi are in these little huts. They are quite sweet however also have open pannels so you often catch a glimps of a geko or frog sneaking up the wall. I sware I felt something crawling across my face in the night, freakout!!
On the second day on the island I went for a 2 hour bush and beach ride. Riding through the bush was great but then we unsaddeled and the horses went into the sea. Amazing. So good going bareback and in the warm water. My horse was an exrace horse but a sweety! Had realy good morning. I then went for another walk which was nice. I did almost get lost as I followed a crappy map and thought I was on a walking track, Which after about 10 meters was no more, so I am stood alone in the middle of the bush trying to find my way back to the track. I wasnt far but panic did set in and I had visions of bumping into a snake or spider. I did obviously make it back so was not eaten however will not be wlking of tracks again and definatly not following crappy maps.
I then hoped on the bus to head to Airlee beach. This is the place to come for sailing to the Whitsunday Island. Its quite a busy place with a lot of night spots so headed out for few beers. Im currently wating to get on the boat for my 2 night saling trip. Will therefore fill you in when I return.
Love lots xxx
