Go Greyhound

WHY YOU SHOULD NOT DO THIS LAST MINUTE!

Ok, so trying to figure the bus schedule out at the moment. I'm going to have to talk to the people at greyhound about it. basically, my first stop is bundaburg, but i think that unless i leave at like 7:45am, then the next bus that goes from brisbane to bundaburg isn't till noon. Their are buses on the route.. they just don't stop at bundaburg. Maybe. It's unclear. I thought this would be the easy part.

ok, so sorta the schedule. I've got an extra day (more or less) built into it as a safeguard or in case something comes up and want to hang out an extra day.

Brisbane -- Bundaburg
arrive in Bundy 12th @ 6:50pm
depart 13th @ 4:40pm

Mackay
arrive 13th @ 6:30pm
Depart (probably) 17th @ 9:30am ( i may leave late on the 16th)


Airlie Beach
arrive 17th @ 11:20am
depart 18th @ 9:20am

Townsville
arrive 18th @ 1:30pm
depart 20th @ 11:15am

Cairns
Arrive 20th @ 5:10pm
Depart 25th @ 6:15am (virgin blue flt DJ770)

I was expecting only three days in cairns, but i'd love to have 4. I anticipate my biggest issue being getting started out of brisbane and figuring out the bus system, how to pick one up, reading the timetables etc. I think i've figured it out, but i'll ask lots of questions in the morning at the bus terminal.

i'll try and keep up with the blog using the libraries, hostels and internet cafe's where available. i'll also keep up with emails.

make suggestions if you like, these aren't any hard or fast places, just the ones i thought best based on the tour book etc

i'll be in touch
Jordan
