Night time, Built in the 1890's its grandeur reflects the wealth of Queensland's gold mines. With the irony of a state torn between conservatism and tourism, the building is now a 24hr casino.
It rained!!!!!

3 days of traveling, and it rained! I dont know why i even bother.

Well what's new?? Ah well, bank account is sorted, as is mobile, as if Tax File number.....Sleep??? not quite.
Met up with Ben from back at village east which was good fun. Very weird to meet up on the other side of the world. Safe to say his is the only mobile number i currently have!!!!

The hostel, I'm Currently at is Base Backpackers Central. Its pretty big as hostels go, filled with people from all over. Cant really give my opinion on it yet as haven't been here long enough. Safe to say at present, it will do.
Its 7:45am and I'm in the lobby which serves as a travel agent/ internet hotspot/ 'job club'. The original intention wasn't to get up quite this early but hay ho, room mates and their alarms!!!!

Going to see if i can get some sort of rag tag plan together, been talking to a few people and Innisfail seems to be my best bet for 'work' at the moment. Its a big Sugar/ Banana plantation town, which has a lot of backpackers pass through it, so the hostels there tend to cater towards the Working Holiday Visa Type. Bus will most likely be my mode of transport up there, i think its about a 24 hour trip, its just south of Cairns. Time will tell on this front!!

Hmm, plans for today? Well have one night left booked at the current hostel, just weighing it up whether its worth me staying here for a few more nights as i have to wait around in town till monday at the earliest for my bank card to come through. As big as this place is, i think they are quite full at the moment, so might move on.

Right now?.....BREAKFAST!
