Hair style session II

Eva at hairdresser Kathi. The first attempt was not really visible, so we had to try again...

new color...




Happy Effi with a new look but an old boyfriend ;-)

Mission Beach

After so much "spacken" we had to relax at Mission Beach.

At Mission Beach the impact of cyclone Yasi was visible. It was a kind of destroyed paradise.

Wallaman Falls


The highest waterfall in Australia





Bush romantic atmosphere, seen by Thorstili

Perilous snake, found by Thorstili ;-) It took nearly ten minutes till the Swiss Cheesy Mice found out that it was only Bob´s plastic snake. One part of our conversation... Kathi: "Sag bloß dem Thorsten nicht, dass es wahrscheinlich eine Brown Snake ist (giftigste Schlange). Der flippt sonst aus".

Love is in the air... ähhh on the ground

First appiontment at "Salon Kathi". Star hairdresser "El Joramo" was yesterday...

The colour was not as meant to be.

El Joramo opened up a car workshop and inspected the brakes of Lady G-spot. Scary, isn't it?

The cow that kept an eye on Thorsten's shoes.

Stringers slowly kill this tree...

While Effi, Kathi and Jori were still snoring, Thorstili took some awesome pics from the sunrise.

The first two days - Townsville, Couchsurfing and Billabong Reserve

We were struggeling to squeeze the two into our car. But somehow it worked out. But it was chaotic! ;-)


no comment ;-)


Then we visited the Billabong Reserve that was recommended by our friend Pepper Peter. But to be honest, besides the crocodiles it was not worth to go there because it was just like a zoo. Especially the turtle race was a big bullshit! Sorry Peter. But nevertheless it was a good possibility to spot a Koala.

Not as cute but a good imitation.

Hungry turtle waited to be fed by the visitors.

Ups... one crocodile ate a staff member. The hat seemed to be not so tasty...

No worries, just a freshwater crocodile (freshy). They are harmless to humans. At least they won´t kill us.

But the estuarine crocodile (salty) can kill and eat humans.

The show included a crocodile jumping to get some chicken.

After the billabong, it was time for relaxing at the Townsville City Beach.

Poor Effi!


Thanks to Thorsten's IPhone: a panoramic view of Townsville


What a bed! Thanks to Kathi and Olga we could spend one night couchsurfing in this awesome bed! Olga visited Kathi and Thorsten in Basel and stayed some nights ón their couch. Unfortunately Olga was not in Townsville but her flatmate Kyle was so friendly to let us in the flat!

Can you see the black lion? ;-)


THANK YOU!
