Townsville

Hi everyone,

Steve here.

Arrived in Townsville yesterday after a mostly wet ride from lngham south. We where glad to find it dry and cool. We are becoming quite efficient now at breaking up and setting up camp.
The camp is rather full but somehow they managed to sqeeze our 12ft van in. We where allocated a spot nearest the ( artificial ) lake. Maybe l can hook an artificial fish.
lt's nice to be back in civilization again. Annie and l have decided not to stop anywhere with a population of less than two million people. Tommorow we will be off to discover more of this wonderful city ( starting with the inside of the casino ). For tips on how to lose at roulette ASK ME.
The weather has warmed up a bit today but very overcast. After nearly being swept away in Cairns we appreciate anything that's not wet. Our van spot has steel anchors imbeded in the concrete (Who knows, maybe things could get worse! ).
l seem to have fixed the water leaks which have made a big difference ( especially to Annie as her bed was getting soaked.
