Sitting in the Fat Possum cafe i just don't know exactly what to say about Airlie. It's not much of a town. It's the outlet to the Whitsunday's and that is about it. It is party backpacker paradise with cheap rooms ($14) and lots of beer. People out till all hours of the night and sleeping all day waiting to get on a sailboat. My room had a fridge and AC though. There is no beach in Airlie Beach so they built this lagoon which is affectionately known as the "sperm bank." Yeah yummy makes me want to go swimming and get crabs.
Went to both KFC and McDonald's to feel like an American while I was here. Good stuff since i haven't eaten like that in about 3 years. Complete with Coke and everything. Also had some sushi rolled by a fat white Aussie. Needless to say it was not the best sushi i have had in my life.
A couple of good nights out at Beaches backpacker's bar completed my time here and i must say it was funny when Mark got clocked by the low hanging fan and had to go in the ambulance to get 2 stitches. Wowzers.
I have been gone from reality for so long now. My main focuses are to try and spend as little as possible on meals and accom. Most computers suck. I still hate possums even though they are completely different and almost Wallaby like here. Don't let life turn into a routine - it is good to be tired at the end of the day. Drinking goon will make you feel like hell the next day and forever just because you remember you did it. Go out and do something don't wait for it to find you.
