Up early, about 7:30, showered, packed, lounged, about 9:15, walked to the bus stop with Linda for her 9:30 bus, then I used the internet, then back to the hostel, Court and I headed to the bus stop and got on our 10:30 bus. We got to Townsville about 3:00, ran into Linda at the station (she was heading to Magnetic Island), had a bus change, then continued up to Mission Beach, got there about 7:30.
Six of us on the bus were booked in to Mission Beach Resort, and they didn't have a minibus waiting, so one of the other girls called, and they sent a bus to pick us up.
Mission Beach Resort is NICE! It's a Comfort Resort (of the Comfort hotel chain), that has a backpacker village. So we get to mingle with all the highbrows, upper class in the casino and the classy, expensive restaurant. The restaurant does a buffet every day for breakfast and supper, and all the rooms on the backpacker village have discount cards, so backpackers can get the buffet for $4 cheaper than the regular hotel room people. Hahaha!!
To bed early, about 9:30. Only had about 2 hours sleep the night before!
