Tom's Global Adventure
Hiya, I've had the best last few days and I've never ever felt so relaxed! Yesterday we drove down south from Cairns to Mission beach (the one in the photo) and on the way I swam in a big volcanic lake. The lake is only ever filled up by rain water so it was just pure blue with nothing in it and the water is so still, like a swimming pool with no one in it, if you know what I mean?! We also stopped off at the water fall where the herbal essence shampoo advert was set and I swam under it and stood on the rocks behind it. Got some really cool pics but can't find a computer that will download them.
After a really quiet night we left this morning and drove down to Townsville before getting the ferry over to Magnetic Island where I'm sleeping in a hut thing next to the beach, it's amazing.
Went sea kayaking as well earlier but had to wear a stinger suit because if I'd fallen in the water and got stung by a box jelly fish I would have died in minutes which was pretty scary!
Even though the beaches are really nice along the coast you can't actually swim at many of them because of crocodiles and Jelly fish in the water so have to use the pool or netted off areas.
Well I'm going to have a bear on the beach now and tomorrow I'm goig to explore the Island so hope you all have a good day.
Tom
