We caught up with Kelly and Marty in Townsville. They gave us the grand tour of the strand, took us to the best ice cream parlour in Townsville and then drove us to the cowboys vs manly game. It was a fun game being surrounded by angry cowboys fans and listening to the not so energetic cowboys theme song – with a theme song like that you wont win a game.
Airlie Beach
We left Kelly and Marty behind to get ready for their farewell bbq and headed toward Airlie Beach. There wasn’t a lot to see along the way except for the town of Bowen which was apparently the place to be. (well it had an 80 page brochure dedicated to this one town) The town of Bowen, known for it’s BIG MANGO is also known for the location where the film Australia was filmed – no Hugh in sight. Bowen was a pretty town by the coast with some beautiful beaches and many green turtles swimming by the jetty.

We arrived in Airlie beach, checked into our sailing cruise then ate a $2 steak meal at the hotel!
