Cairns

Saturday 12 February

Arrived in Cairns. Stayed at the Colonial club a nice complex with pools, gardens and bars.

We visited the rain forest reserve called Kuranda.

These are the ducks that take you on a rain forest tour both on and off the water.

We met some Aborigonies who demonstrated boomerangs, spears and digerydoos.
Witty went on stage and danced with them. Much to his embarasment.

 


This is Jack the ripper who has killed 12 of his wives.
He lives on his own now.

We went snorkeling on the barrier reef. This is the boat we travelled out on.
And this is the platform where you can do many things. There is an under water viewing area and a cafe. There are glass bottomed boats to make you feel sick in. And you can scooba dive or snorcel.
