After Airlie Beach we drove to Townsville. I really wanted to go skydiving but for various reasons (mostly $$) I didn't end up going. Instead we rented jetskis and did a tour off Magnetic Island. It was amaaazinggg!! The tour was 1.5 hours and we got to go around pretty much the whole island and went out to sea. We saw a few sea turtles which was really cool.
The jet skis were SO fast.. the guy said they could get up to 80km/hr.. I only got it up to 50 and I was holding on for dear life. My voice was definetly hoarse from all the screaming, it was so fun.
Magnetic Island is gorgeous, I would like to go back there for a week and lounge around at the hostel they have there. There are a lot of places in Aus that have hostels that you can stay and work 3 or 4 hours a day and get a place to stay and dinner. If (when) I come back here I might do that for a while.. get to enjoy the town where the hostel is and it's basically free.
I'm trying to post some pictures on facebook of the jet skiing and everything else that's been going on lately!
