3rd October cairns to townsville.

Saw got up at around 8am today, got to get a bus down to townsville at 9am.

bus takes 6hrs to get down there, bus is nothign special, just a normal coach, does have a TV but that wasn't working !!!! typical, so i slept some more on the coach, and finsihed reading harry potter (the last book) which was pretty good, should be a good film when it comes out, and i found on a coach i can read, which i was a little surprised at. sweet.

so got to townsville, around 3pm. kerry white (girl that use to live in my road at home and we kind of grew up together) was lovely enough to come pick me up with one of the kids she looks after craig who is 5. Was really nice to see a friendly face, it felt a little sureal actually meet up in townsville in oz. very strange.

she was also kind enough to let me crash at her place. we went and picked up the other kids she looks after juliette who is nearly 3.

we all went for a swim in there swimming pool, and i am so impressed with juilettes swimming and it is realy nice to be around kids again, they keep me entertained.

we had to jump in together and play around in the pool, being a life guard and stuff. had dinner, plently of talking in the evening over a few beers. and i got to stay in a nice king size double bed, how nice that was i can't explain, normally i am in a bunk bed (yes always the bloody top stil) and now i have a huge double bed all to my self. this is heaven.
