... literally push me up against the wall before.
So the diving. I'm talking like 30 meter vis, super calm seas with very little current and like NO surge, and lots of coral and sea life. Seriously everything you could want. We dove two reefs, Norman and Saxon. At this one site in Norman called "Troppo" there's a big Maori Wrasse that lives there named Wally. Now Wally is not only really, really stupid, but also extremely friendly and curious. You could pet ...

... into the city centre wondering if I would be able to find a space to park but found plenty of spaces only a block back from the beach with free all day parking. I spent most of the day exploring the down town area. It is a very pretty city, developed as a port in 1876 serving the agricultural hinterland and the gold fields of the interior. It is situated on a narrow coastal strip backed by rain forest, most of the modern city has been built during the last 30 years, much of ...

... br> Our first night in Cairns a mad one. For six bucks we got a big rack of spare ribs, free drink, and the girls got as much champagne as we could drink in an hour, served by slimy hunks. We we were the first ones dancing up on the tables, and they soon became the dancefloor. We found a florescent highlighter and covered each other in aboriginal bodypaint under the UV. In the end we got ...

... journey leading to another world I have never known. As if sitting in an IMAX theater, my mind tried to take in all that surrounded me. The coral surrounded me and welcomed me to it's world. As I opened the door to my new home, I was blown away by all the inhabitants. So many fish were swimming by, saying their sweet hellos. Each was clothed in the brightest of colors I had never seen before. Boldly they gripped my attention and wouldn't ...

I went diving and explored he rainforests, as well as going to a place with a fine name, Cape Tribulation!! Its all very beautiful if a little hot and damp. got a Greyhound bus ticket that I can use all the way to Melbourne, only $400 (190quid ish) over the next 6 months ...

... is relatively easy then we go to the Internet to apply for our tax file numbers, which Jaff had warned Tommy that they could take a long time to process. Then we decide to go look at the price of bicycles but they are all really expensive, so we decide to see if our camper has a hitch which would be necessary to carry the bikes, with the heat getting to us we sought comfort in the shopping centre again.

Well, we rescheduled for a couple of weeks later and I well remember that our final qualification dive was on 3rd October, our wedding anniversary. How we loved giant-striding into the cloudy and ...
