mission beach

---

so we made it here after our near death experience with the tsunami........well not quite but ads to the excitment.

mission beach is not atal how i imgined it. i thought it would be mroe of a byron bay but it is even quieter than that! therer are about 3 shops and a couple hostels and thats about it........oh yeah and a beach! because of the bad weaher out at sea though its not looking that pretty as loads of sticks and weed have been thrown onto the beach, but we have to busy for the beach anyway!

yesterday we had such a wicked day. we went extreme white water rafting and had so much fun! although fearing for my life at times it was still awsome!
we were in rafts of 6 and had guides who were insane! they tried tipping you at every stage possible so as you can imagine we got very wet!
we rafted some awsome rapids, some were slightly scary, he chucked me and another girl upfront and when all you can see is a huge rock ploughing towards you your screaming so load! hehe.......bujt it was such a buzz!

we also got to go rock jumping and body surfing, which was insane. we could body surf a grade 3 rapid and i did actually think i was a goner there! waves are smashing you in the face and rapids dragging you everywhere! i didnt like it much but as you can imagine george thought it was wicked and went back for more!

was a great day, we had so much fun i would definately recommend doing it to anyone!

today we had a lazy day......chilled by the pool most of the day. weather not that great as it is rainy season up here now. we have had rain every night but days have been ok. just like being back at home!
off up to cairns tommorrw.......we are nearly done with the east coast.....going to miss it hehe!
hope you are all well

I'm glad you braved the extreme white water rafting, it was the same one that we did and like you say, it was insane!! Glad it all went safely and no more stitches, nice to speak to you both on the phone this morning!! xxx
