Case in point, the Funnelle resident parking lot…there’s quite a few potholes in that blacktop! They are unforgiving to automobile… Read more »

Of course I would be the one to track down the only rink in Townsville. The owner and his friend also… Read more »
Down under!
So I made it to Australia! I landed in Townsville, a town located along the northeast coast of Queensland, on July 22nd and have been running rampant since! The town itself is quite large, and fairly busy. James Cook University is not as close to downtown as I had expected. It is a 25 minute bus ride to… Read more »
