We got up ready to check out of the hostel at 10am. The manager was in and gave us both a refund of $79.00 as we were only supposed to have paid $13.50 when we checked in the other day with our Aussie Specialist cards and Explore New Zealand cards. We had breakfast and hang around the hostel for a while. My eye has really swollen up now by the mosquito bite and my cheek is swollen as well. It looks awful. I am keeping my sunglasses on all day as its so bad. Then we got the bus at 10.40am to go to Nelly Bay ferry terminal. Our ferry back to Townsville leaves at 12.15pm. It took 20 minutes on the ferry. When we got off we went to the Greyhound office in the ferry terminal and booked our bus to Airlie Beach. Then we walked to our hostel - Globetrotters where we are staying for 2 nights. It took 10 minutes to walk to the hostel but it felt like ages as it was really hot and we had our bags with us. We checked in and in a dorm room with 2 other girls. In the afternoon we had a look around the city and found the cinema. We got tickets to watch a film. Gina wanted to see the new Twilight film - New Moon and I wanted to see Final Destination 4 in 3D as I didn't get a chance to watch this before I came away travelling. The films were roughly on around 4pm so we went to the supermarket - Woolworths to get food supplies and took it back to the hostel. Then we went back to the cinema and watched our films. We both enjoyed the films we watched. In the evening we chilled out watching the TV. We watched Neighbours and Home & Away. Apparently they are 6 weeks ahead here to the UK according to my mum. Then we went to bed.
