Mackay, Australia - Photos from Jason

Jason left for Australia Friday afternoon and is hanging out in Mackay for a few days before he moves into the house that he will be staying in for the next 5 weeks.  When we first started talking about the possibility of me going to Australia, we discussed having me fly into Mackay, where we could hang out for a few days, before flying to Sydney.  But as money became more of a concern, we decided to skip the Mackay part of the journey to save money on flights.  When I spoke to Jason a few nights ago he said that he wishes I could see Mackay because it reminds him a lot of Hawaii, which he knows is my absolute favorite place on Earth (so far, that is).  Here are a few of the photos - I agree that it looks a lot like Hawaii.

I haven't been very good about posting on this bloggity-blog lately and I have A LOT of posts waiting to be written.  Stay tuned.
