* Did I tell you can kill yourself in Townsville. There is a
large hill which takes about 45 minutes to walk to the top. The
only
time I walked up the hill I felt I was going to have myself a good
old fashioned myocardial infarction and drop dead! There is an
upside, after you realise your not going to die and it was only a
near death experience. That it has the greatest panoramic views of
the whole city. Particularly good at sunset!!
