Day 108

16/09/2009

Checked my e:mails to make sure we have received the Bill of Lading from SDV in Dili and confirmation that the van is on its way back to England, which we have. The good news is they couldn't arrange a ship from Singapore to Felixstowe, so it will be going to Southampton. Much easier for us.

Also booked our return flight, with Malaysian Airlines for 6th November arriving early morning on Saturday 7th. Will probably need to buy thermal underwear.

Wandered into the centre of Townsville via the beach and one of the pools. Not much of a shopping area, it all seems to be American style "out of town" but we did find a tour shop which proved to be a bit expensive as we booked a two day trip for Mon/Tue out to part of the Great Barrier Reef. The trip departs from Airlie Beach which is about 300km down the coast so on Sunday we will move south.

Lazed around one of the pools for a few hours, ate at a restaurant along the beach road and were home before dark to check Mr Caravan was in position. He was.
