Australia is Awesome man!!!!! After three flights we finally arrived in Cairns. As soon as we arrived (Monday to us, Sunday to you) we had cocktails by the hotel pool! Very nice. Once unpacked we made our way down to the beach to watch the sunset. It was a public holiday here for the Queen's official birthday. (Why don't we get one of those?) There were actually people using public BBQ's by the sea. What a great way to spend a bank holiday. Next day (now Tuesday to us) we spent trying to get ...

Delivered to Perth airport by our handy and free taxi (thanks Kandy!).
First jump was to Alice Springs, on the hottest day they have had for yonks - 35 degrees!! A big change from the frigid temps in Perth.
Not much happening at the Alice Springs airport.
Glad they clearly labeled the "Toilet Truck" though, you wouldn't want to confuse that with the "Water Truck".... and Virgin thought they had trouble with their dodgy chicken wraps....hmmmm.
Toilets are very low to the ground in...
Up early (for us) and ready for our Skyrail pickup @ 8:40am.
Yeah I know, doesn't "sound" that early but at this stage it still felt like 6:40am. bleurrrggh.
Skyrail cable car was very good. Nice and smooth, included two stops with boardwalks through the forest at each stop, and a lookout over the magnificent Baron falls at the second stop.
In fact, the cable car was much more impressive than Kuranda itself which is mainly a succession of market after market after market - all s...
Another early start (are we on holiday or not???) and at the Reef Fleet terminal by 8:15 for our day trip to Green island on "Big Cat Cruises".
Pleasantly surprised that there were not huge crowds here. Thought it may be packed as it's the most hyped and closest island to Cairns, being only a 45min ferry trip away.
Went for a walk around the island first. It's quite tiny - only 1.6km around so this didn't take too long. Nice clear water sparkling in the sun. Lots of photos along the...

4:00 pm<br><br>Just got back from a full day of whitewater rafting on the Barron River, about an hour South of Cairns. What an awesome day! The crew was really vibrant and made everyone comfortable, regardless of our level of expertise in whitewater rafting (mine being nil). I was initially excited for the trip, but it took on a whole new level of excitement when we went around to pick up my fellow rafters bright and early this morning (8:00 ...

... m aboard a vessel which docked very close to the GBR. I’ve already been in the water a few times, so I need a break. The weather is absolutely magnificent – maybe 80F/26C. Still, the water is cold the moment you enter.<br><br>Last night, I did nothing because of flight situation, and all I had for dinner was chips (fries). This morning, I got up “late” at 8am and had the free included ...

... all it was a pretty good haul when you include the all you can eat buffet. I spent the next few days exploring the city of Cairns. One thing that was surprising is that the 3 km stretch of beach that is next to the city is followed by a huge mud flat. Apparently 100 years ago it was all pristine beach, but over the course of 40 years the city had been dredging out its waterway for large ships to pass into its harbor and eventually all this mud came back to cover ...

... YHA de Cairns à 16H30. Posé mas affaires ; renseignement pour les tours de snorkeling dans la grande barrière de corail bien sûr et c'est bon : je pars demain 7H30 ! génial ! Cela m'a pris un peu de temps et j'ai été un peu désagréable avec l'hôtesse de l'agence de YHA car j'avais faim ! Et oui mimi, je ne suis pas encore guérie, je n'avais pas de barre de céréale...lol. Il y avait tellement de choix différent à tous les prix que ce c'est pas facile de choisir !J'ai ...

... but my editor tells me to nip it in the bud, so it's off the the airport where I thought I saw a local member of the chamber of commerce giving a traditional Cairns send-off which appears to be grabbing you by the ankles, turning you upside down, and shaking the last coins from your pockets before he lets you go down to your plane. Note to self: get editor spellcheck to catch all typos.
