Saturday 22nd September 2007


We got up this morning, had our free breakfast (toast only - we're saving the Weetabix) and then sat by the pool whilst we did some washing. Afterwards we took another walk into town and had a look around the shops.

This afternoon we went back into Travel Bugs and booked a two-day tour up to a place called Cape Tribulation, which is a huge rain forest and National Park. We also found the number for the Blue Horizon hotel in Vancouver, Canada...

When we left we had a small picnic under a tree near the sea and then, when we finished, we called my Mum and Keith - who are staying at the Blue Horizon hotel. They were really shocked to hear from us and it was nice because Keith turns 60 next week and we got to wish him a Happy Birthday. We also spoke with my Mum again, and she cried... again!

Because we'd booked the Travel Bugs tour we were given vouchers for a free meal in place called the Rhinobar, so this evening we went round for that. Even though it was only about 6pm the place was like a little nightclub with a room with a few tables and chairs - so we had our free meals (we both had Thai Green Chicken curry - which was pretty good) and left. Afterwards we walked around for a bit and then caught the free bus back to the hostel, because we had to pack our bags - we're changing hostels tomorrow.

Good evening Canada... this is Australia calling!
