Today saw Chaggie have a rather late start in getting out the apartment, yet an early one for rising from bed. Staggie woke up at 05:00 to watch the England vs France football match live. It was a poor 2-1 defeat, yet Staggie was pleased with Newcastle player Andy Carroll' debut England performance. He was joined by Chino at 08:00.
After breakfast Chaggie had packing to do in preparation for tomorrows flight to 'Cairns'. We packed our bags, started some washing and cleared up the place a bit. We then had to work out our way of getting to the airport. After having to wait again for the receptionist to get off her lunch break we worked out a cheap way costing $45 each in getting there, by shuttle bus and then train.
Today was overcast all day with patches of rain throughout, it took us untill 15:00 to finally get out of our appartment after a morning stuck indoors. We hit the indoor pool which already had a family using it. Thinking we could get in and put pressure on them to get out the pool, we soon found we lost by giving up and leaving ourselves. It was too cold for the beach and the outdoor pool got cold quick so us girls retreated back indoors.
Once showered we had to get out again, we couldn't see ourselves looking back o
n the day with only going in the indoor pool for an hour. So a stroll across the beach it was. We walked a couple of kilometres getting to the Burleigh Head National Park. Thinking it would be a short walk through a small forest, we were wrong. It turned out to be a 1 hour long walk through a rainforest, getting lost on the way. As it soon got dark we found ourselves getting out into civilization again at 19:00. We were a little anxious to get out, so it was a relief to do so, although not exiting from the same place we entered the rainforset from, but we found the beach we came from, thankfully.
Now looking back on our afternoon we're pretty glad to just be under a shelter for the e
vening. Will be an early start tomorrow, after dinner tonight we're going to have no food left so a healthy McDonalds breakfast it shall be before a 10:10 pickup.
Anyway back to our tinnies.
