Townsville to Airlie Beach


Friday 19 July
This morning Declan and I left Linda and Thomas at the campsite to go to Townsville Hospital for a quick check up. The doctor was very happy with the way Declan's burns are healing. They re-dressed the wounds and gave him some moisturiser to help prevent scarring.
When we arrived back at the caravan park Linda and Thomas were well under way with the packing up and it wasn't long before we were on our way towards Airlie Beach. 
Along the way we stoppped at an "award winning" bakery at Bowen for lunch. The food was really good and we stayed a little longer for Declan to have a play in a water park along the foreshore.

On the way out of Bowen we came across the Big Mango. We thought we had to stop for a photo but it took a bit of persuasion for Tom to agree to be in the picture.
We finally arrived at Airlie Beach to some beautiful weather and, after a couple of days of nice weather in Townsville, it was great to see we hadn't driven away from it. We set up camp, booked Ocean Rafting for tomorrow, and put the boys to bed as it was going to be an early start. Linda and I decided to have a late night swim in the swimming pool before heading off to bed also.
