... waren sooo gleucklich endlcih Sand unter den Fuessen zu spueren (war nur moeglich, da grad Ebbe war). Dabeihatten wir auche in etwas mulmiges Gefuehl vor allem nachdem wir den ersten Hai in unserem Leben so nah am Ufer gesehen haben.
Zurueck im Hostel haben wir erfahren, dass es zur Ziet rings um Cairns brennt. DIe Buschbraende bzw. Rauch sind sogar von der Stadt aus zu sehen. Wobei uns das nicht beunruhigen braucht!

... en-suite, and our own beds as opposed to creaky dodgy bunk-beds.
We got the bus at 9am yesterday and got to Cairns at 6:30pm. But on the way we did get to stop at this wicked little crocodile park.

I think it's only right too as we both have to live with each other for such a length of time in close proximity so need all the help and ease we can get. Wish us luck!!

... ocean, known as the Esplanade, has dozens of restaurants and shops with outdoor seating available. The downtown area is probably about 10 blocks by 5 blocks in size, and there are tons of bars and restaurants and is pretty nice, all in all. There is definitely no shortage of stuff to do.

The few hours on a near deserted island in the rain were less good! Some of the other people who were on the plane decided to go snorkeling, on the basis that if you're wet, you're wet.
