Jet Star has taken us from Adelaide to Cairns in 3 hrs this morning. Not much too see from outside, but dessert! Arrived to a partially cloudy day with a temp of 30,very humid. The surrounding coast line is very hilly with lots of tropical forest running down to the shore line. All our luggage arrived safely, we had a few bottles of wine that we intend to consume with some choco 1 night! Our ride into town some a blast as the cab driver was the first to ID us as Canadians, instead of from thr...

It was now the end of our 3 days in HK. The flight from HK to Cairns in Queensland, Australia, which was on Australia Airlines, took around 6 hours. Luckily this night flight was only half full, so I managed to get a whole row of 3 seats all to myself to sleep on. We arrived at Cairns at 4:30am. We got on the shuttle bus to our hotel, which was the Outrigger Hotel in the Palm Cove resort, in between Cairns and Port Douglas. When we arrived at the lavish 4 star hotel, we checked in and had our...

Well here we are in the Tropical North of Queensland, a little gem of a place called Cairns....... How did we get here?? By planes and trains and automobiles, which sounds very much like a title of a song but since Bill sings like a drowning kangaroo and Tina has been at the local ginger beer, we will just have to explain. Having landed at Brisbane on what seemed a very short flight from Singapore of less than 8 hours we were greeted with the aussie "G'day mate" by everyone we met. All was pe...

G'day from Cairns It's even warmer here in Cairns and quite humid. Everywhere is very green, even the birds, green lorikeets. They make quite a noise in the morning and in the evening. There are others birds as well. On the first evening we were here we wondered what the black birds were flying around after dark. They have a 2ft wingspan so were quite big. It turns out they are fruit bats! Our apartment is right on the Esplanade. To the right we can see rainforest and to the left we can see t...

... going to turn around and say ‘Yes, I was wrong, please come back into the club?’ Duh!) And now Irish chic was complaining that there is no such law in Ireland, so why should it apply to her in Australia! I had a good laugh at that point, and happily went back to sleep, as Irish chic burst into tears. <br><br>Today I am going to look around the Atherton Tablelands, which are apparently home to lakes, waterfalls, baby turtles and cassowaries.

... see the rainforest, so I’m happy. The roads up here are winding and narrow, and the scenery of “small” mountains is great.<br><br>Lastly, I think I’ve decided to extend the trip for 3 days / 2 nights because I would really like to see the Outback. My justification for spending $1000 more is that I think this will be my last overseas trip (but not travel experience) for a while. I need ...

... instead. The ride back was wetter than the ride out, our captain was sailing with his feet whilst trying to keep an eye on the direction we were headed, we were thoroughly soaked which was great after changing into dry clothes after the snorkeling, a few people had to dive for the edge after the ride got a little too bumpy! <br><br>We decided after careful consideration and alot of persuasion from Robbie to ditch the idea of fruit picking and instead, raid ...

... night in a hostel in Cairns and we were picked up the next morning by Cherene, our guide with On The Wallaby tour company. I had done a few tours around Australia, but this was Melissa's first experience, and she described it best as adult summer camp. You start out quiet on a small bus with 20 strangers the first morning, and by the end of the second day, you are exchanging email and Facebook info and vowing to visit and stay in touch! The On the Wallaby adventure was two days ...

... We decided it would be best to make moves to Cairns. After a couple days of driving, skating, and camping we made it hear. Because it is so close to the Barrier Reef is a major tourist town. They do however have the biggest skatepark in OZ. It is very very hot though. Luckily they have lights at night so we can skate when it gets a bit cooler. We are also in major croc and stingray territory so ...

... I also bought a hair shaver to take with me on the rest of my trip as it was only $14 from target so if I only use it for one hair cut its paid for itself. Didn't do much all day except for laze around the hostel and relax as it was too hot to do anything. A girl came into the room who was on the bunk below me, she was from Rochdale lol small world. She had a really infectious personality and we talked none stop for about 30 minutes. Flo ...
