... lément de la nature à éviter. La meilleure façon de vous présenter cet oiseau protégé dans la région, est de vous imaginer une dinde géante pouvant mesurer jusqu’à 5 pieds et qui est reconnu de pouvoir attaquer l’humain. Il semblerait que si on fait face à cette petite « armoire à glace », il faut lever les bras et reculer lentement (Probablement l’effet de grandeur peut le faire reculer ou bien c’est notre odeur de « d’ssous de ...

... I had adrenaline pumping through every vein in my body and wasn't exactly thinking straight but what a rush. After meeting up with LJ and JJJ interviewed her to a similar response we loaded into the van for the drive back to the city. Once in the office we spoke with the girl we took LJ photos and looked at the video and in the end we came to an agreement and bought the full package from her. Now I'll pass you over to LJ to give you her account of everything and we'll upload ...

... the shopping mall. So we can at least say we experienced the first rain here in Cairns for 6 months instead of all that boring hot sunshine and blue skies we've been getting used to of late. Claire was telling us about the bush fires that they have been getting and how this will obviously help stop them and freshen all the plants up. We spent the rest of the morning and early afternoon running around a big mall with the kids in little race car trolleys each ...

Were staying in Cairns at the moment, the palace were at is in the middle of what seems to be a residential area – well out of the main part of cairns. So we have to plan around the free shuttle times if we plan anything.

I don’t know how to feel now. I’m happy because I am staying an extra 3 days in Alice Springs, which is the heart of the Outback. I’m saddened because I will be spending at least $1500 USD more ...

... fuehrte, dass wir unseren Flug versaeumten und anstatt des Direktfluges auf einen Flug mit 6-stuendigem Zwischenstopp in Brisbane umgebucht wurden. Insgesamt kamen wir also nach einer 48-stuendigen Monsterreise am 21.7.2009 voellig erschoepft in unserem Quartier in Cairns an und fielen halbtot ins Bett.
Dank Jetlag dauerte der so lange herbeigesehnte Schlaf in dieser Nacht, trotz aller Erschoepfung, nicht laenger als 5 Stunden. Da ...

... the sights. A day trip from Mission Beach to Dunk Island was quite enjoyable. Went by water taxi. Spent the day hiking the island and sunning on the beach. How about all those fruit bats!! Found them by accident while running in Port Douglas. Had to return with a camera just to share them with everyone. These guys have a 2 foot plus wing span. Saw them one evening as they took flight. Thousands of them. A ...

... east coast, I called it the Magaluf of the backpacking world! Unfortunately, as this was a reoccurring issue throughout Aus it was a big negative for me and I think a bigger budget could of helped to avoid having to stay in places like this. So that first night Toby muddled through to cook our dinner, whilst I sat with my feet up to avoid the cockroaches and then we decided we'd eat out after that!
