Views from the hill behind school

We (meaning me, Amy, and Jeff) decided to walk up this hill/mountain thingy behind our campus, so we did, and it gave us a decent view of the city, though we aim to go higher next time and get on top of Mt. Stuart, or else over to Castle Hill in the middle of town.  Just about all of the trees in the pictures are Eucalyptus trees (aka gum trees).  Its very dry up there, so all the grasses are ugly brown, but hey, what did you expect out in the bush? I love how the sky is always so pretty blue here!!  A lot of these are quite similar, but I like them anyway.

This background is another of my pictures, and is one of the views from the hill out toward the city of Townsville, and you can see the ocean and Magnetic Island.  The river that goes through town is Ross River.
