Townsville

The rainforest at Paluma was lovely this morning as we walked about 5km to some lookouts and a cascading creek. We then headed to Townsville and had a nice lunch on The Strand with John E and two of his friends he was visiting in Townsville. Afterwards we visited the Town Common, which is a massive wetland area (very impressive) north of the city near Pallarenda - which we also visited, having gun emplacements from WW2 and nice views over Magnetic Island.
