Arrow 1st trip to Queensland: Townsville + Cairns in May!

Man I'm loving these travel deals, May will be a good month!


Just booked a crazy itinerary for US Memorial Day... meeting some Americans in Cairns but also making a stop in Townsville for two half day exploring opps...


Okay, it goes as follows if anyone wants to meet up anywhere along the way:


Friday, May 22nd: 9am Sydney departure, 11:40am Townsville arrival... no plans all day, staying at the Holiday Inn if anybody wants to grab a beer after work, or cruise the city... would love to check it out!


Saturday, May 23rd: 6am Townsville departure, 7:25am Cairns arrival... there are some activities scheduled with the Americans, but I'm sure if anyone from here is around maybe I could meet up with them as well!


Sunday, May 24th: 11:59pm Cairns departure, 5:25am Townsville arrival... by way of a Greyhound bus... for the price I paid I couldn't even get a hotel room for the night, so I'll attempt my darnest to sleep on the bus, and wake up fresh as a daisy for another half day in Townsville.


Monday, May 25th: 12:25pm Townsville departure, 3'ish arrival in Sydney.




the airfare... AU$200... bus AU$50... hotels US$55 in Townsville, US$40 bux in Cairns... 4 star American chains... couldn't believe it... where were these deals when I was dying from price shock in Melbourne???



Anyway... anybody out there wanna up for a brewski or at least a quick hello?


thanks,
