Back to Cairns, and The Daintree

Our time in Cairns was a little reminiscent of our last time there, mostly because Nik had again got some unpleasant infection due to a bug bite, this time on his arm. So we spent a fair few hours at the 24 hour medical centre dealing with that. I'll spare you the details. But the main...

Being A Tourist - Day 12

Tuesday was a designated rest day. A day to chill out, maybe sit on the beach, just generally relax. Relax? What is this Relax of which you speak? Instead, we drove down to the Daintree River for a cruise on the River Train which is the only one of its kind in the world. There are no life...

Being A Tourist - Day 11

Oh my god I hurt in the way only goon makes you hurt which wasn't going to help the fact I get ill at sea anyway. It was the kind of hurt that only copious amounts of tea, bacon, eggs and lying on the floor moaning can fix but no, I had to get on Odyssey H2O which would take us out to the Great...

Being A Tourist - Day 10

One of the least sensible things you can do is look up a good mate who you haven't seen for months the night before you're due to go out on a boat but that's what I did. I'd heard Raz was working at PK's Jungle Village so I found him and told him I'd be back a bit later for a few drinks then me,...

Being A Tourist - Day 9

Cape Tribulation can be easily described in one word. Paradise. Set in the Daintree Rainforest, you emerge from the trees straight onto the beach and it just takes your breath away and the only words you can manage are, "Fuck me, that's pretty!" But whilst its probably one of the most amazing...
