10th August, 2013 – Magnetic Island, Queensland, Australia

Our slow journey up Australia’s Gold Coast took us to some stunning holiday resorts, all with a welcoming laid-back atmosphere and plenty of good restaurants to choose from. First stop was Noodie’s Horseshoe Bar on Magnetic Island – the island so named apparently, because Captain Cook couldn’t get an accurate compass reading as he approached the area and believed (wrongly) that the island had its own magnetic field.  We enjoyed a couple of days here, being joined by Yantina and Luna of London.
