... sites are located side by side. Hence the slogan: "Where the rainforest meets the reef". I even posed for a photo where I had one foot in the water and one foot on the land - to symbolically show that I was in both sites. :P (I know. I am a geek). That was basically the end of the tour and we were taken back to our hotel in Port Douglas.

As soon as we arrived back in town, we quickly washed up and made our way over ...

... seem just as elusive as the numerous crocodiles we are so frequently warned about but fail to make a showing!
Having established ourselves in our final campsite, right by the beach, Jen and I decided to go for a swim. We had talked to the people at the reception desk who regaled us with the usual ‘welcome to the jungle’ stories about crocodiles, sharks, cassowaries and stingers but assured us that the sea was safe in the area around the campsite. We sorted out our ...

It was a much quicker journey km wise and we ended up in Atherton this afternoon. It is raining (but I dont think it ever stops up in these hills) and we have got a few things on the agenda tomorrow to get the Atherton Tablelands conquered.

So da bin ich wieder! Und ich sag euch gleich: Die letzten 3 Tage hattens echt in sich!
Da Cairns nicht gerade als Daueraufenthalt Domizil zu nennen ist, habe ich mich kurzerhand entschlossen 3 Tage nach Cape Tribulation und Port Douglas zu traveln. Und so wurde ich am Morgen des 22.Juli von meiner auch so beliebten Cairnsbleibe "Serpent" aufgegabelt. Naja auf der Reisebeschreibung stand Abholzeit 7:30. Doch wer Australien speziell Queensland kennt, der weiss das 7:30 stehts 8 ...

... s why it's 85% humidity today. Don't kid yourselves, when we woke up to rain again we pulled out the paper and researched the most sunny place on this continent. Perth. On the complete other side. Then spent about two hours discussing the pros and cons (seriously considering the pros) of just packing up and flying westward toward the sun. Instead, we booked ourselves a reef trip tomorrow and headed off to the Habitat. An interesting place that I am not certain ...

... out in their Oz flags. We soon found a bar and got some beers and headed up to the terrace to look over the crowds. The South Bank is amazing, wonderful architecture and landscaping and i immediately fell in love with it. We finally parked ourselves up near a table and got chatting to two nice Aussie blokes, Wayne and David - who became our buddies for the night, they were practically locals and we had a laugh with them swapping stories ...

... sites, we have just been turning up. It seems like it isn't that busy until mid-December - great news for us as this means prices are cheaper as well!!
