Whilst in Australia I had wanted to see some of the paradise islands off the coast of Queensland. Most of them involve having to pay for expensive day excursions / guided tours as these places aren't all accessible by your own means. Our budget wasn't really going to allow for us to be able to do those things. However, upon discovering that I am going to have a little more money to go away with than I originally thought (thanks to Mum breaking her ankle!) I've gone and booked a load of stuff. So, we're doing a day tour of Fraser Island, a cruise round the Whitsundays, stopping at Daydream Island and Whitehaven Beach, a day trip out on the Great Barrier reef to snorkel, maybe dive if courage and money allows us.. And I also booked to go jet-boating whilst in Queenstown, New Zealand. Gotta do some sort of outdoorsy thing whilst there. Didn't realise how tiny Queenstown was despite it's popularity, it's got a population the same size as Thame. Also got tickets for Universal Studios while we're in LA. Sounds much more like a holiday again now.
Got Hep A, Hep B booster and Typhoid today, two sore arms again.
And I got an email telling me our ferry for New Zealand has been cancelled, with no explanation.. And none of the numbers they've given me to reschedule it have worked. It has to be rescheduled for the same day I booked it for, otherwise it messes everything up!
