Port Douglas was the perfect end to our trip. We had a fantastic week with everyone and generally eating and drinking far too much! It was great to see friends over from London and a lot of Uni friends that we hadn't seen for years. Gerald and Gretchen were very organized for their wedding so we were able to see a lot of them too.

Port Douglas is a lovely small beach community. There are lots of fantastic restaurants, a nice wide beach and some great outdoors activities near by. We managed to avoid spiders whilst up in the Dainstree Rainforest area but had fun taking photos of a black snake with orange stripes, that we only discovered later was 'dangerous and highly venomous'! We had a fantastic 'breakfast with the birds' at the local wildlife sanctuary, where Jamie also got to see koalas and kangaroos for the first time. The guys had a second stag do for Gerald (he was really happy to be wearing a dress again!) whilst the girls drank bubbly for the afternoon and decided to try our hand at cane toad racing!

Party
The girls
The wedding was gorgeous. It was held at a cute little church with a stunning view of the beach. The reception was at a luxurious golf club. The evening flew by and we soon found ourselves back at the local pub. The perfect end to the evening was finding the local baker down a back ally starting his days work. He didn't seem fazed by a bride and groom (still in full wedding attire) buying steak and cheese pies at 3am in the morning!
