Airlie beach still... not much to do but sunbathe and read. I've been browsing through Anna's pictures and sighing, remembering when I was going somewhere new every other day amnd never even had the chance to get bored (unless it was with yet another ruin!)
Yesterday I tried to get a volunteer position on a boat, but the waiting list is huge, so that's out of the window. The sailing trips are about $340 for 3 days (on average) so I think I'll skip it and go snorkelling further north.
Tonight it's new years, and I'll probably be with a few of the guys from the Oz bus - sitting next to the sea watching the fireworks and drinking cheap wine.
On the 2nd I'm going further north, to magnetic island, where I can go walking, sea kayaking and snorkelling. I'll be there a few days before travelling up to Cairns on the 6th and finally flying to Auckland, New Zealand on the 12th. Really looking forward to being in New Zealand, and have already been registering online with job companies so that I can a job as soon I get there (so sick of spending lots of money without being able to earn any back!) So, that's the plan! New country, all very exciting.
Have a great new year on Airlie beach. Lots of Love Ma xxx

The sea kayaking and snorkling sounds good.
