We haven't got much to report about our magnetic island trip as we didn't have much time there unfortunately. We were a little unsure whether we would make it over to the island as there is a Cyclone heading down from Cairns but luckily we have just missed it for our boat and Island trips. We arrived by ferry to the island and it was no surprise that it was another beautiful place. We stayed in a really nice hostel with almost cabin like dorns but no ensuit bathrooms or showers so with a little walk to the amenities it did remind us a bit like a school trip.
We arrived quite late in the afternoon but thought we would go for another walk to a lookout point. We treked up a really nice 'path' but again our fitness was tested again when we realised how high this cliff top lookout was. It was through trees and up rocks and boulders but it was definitely worth it when we arrived at one of the highest lookout points on the island. We then went back for some dinner and ended up meeting some really nice people who we played some games with and got involved with the bar games.
8th March
We made our way across again with the ferry to catch our bus to Cairns. We can't believe how quickly the time had gone but also how far we have travelled! We don't want it to end but really looking forward to our tours left in Cairns - Mostly the great barrier reef tour and heading to New Zealand :)
We hope all is well in England and you've managed to dry out a little by now!!
Lots of love
