Townsville

I've been a bit of a jetsetter of late, as I write this I'm currently in Brisbane, but I'll get to that in a later post.

Townsville, for those that don't know is a 2 hour flight north of Brisbane. It's on the coast and in layout is actually very similar to Cairns.

So I flew out for work to take some photos of a drill rig and do a check off before it was to be sent to site. It was a rushed booking and basically I was going to be there and gone within a day. Turns out the rig was going to be a day late...

I only ended up being in Townsville for 24 hours, but I managed to eat the most awesome steak at the steakhouse and pig out on the buffet at Jupiter's Casino.

I had a hire car so I did a bit of cruising, not too much due to time constraints. If anything, I got to visit more of Australia and clock up some frequent flyer points.
