I am back from Cairns and Pt Doulgas and all things warm and wonderful. How cold and brown Adelaide seems in comparison. I spent 2 weeks having a fabulous time, got my dive license, wandered through the Daintree, saw the Great Barrier Reef, fanged around on scooters, went swimming in crytal clear waters in Mossman Gorge and drove with the wind in my (now very short) hair in a Moke! Besides that, plenty of sunning by the waters edge and eating icecream, drinking beer and generally doing things that are bad for my health. I did go for a walk along 4 mile beach though - which obviously is quite long. The diving was great fun, although I was freezing even in tropical waters. The second dive boat I went on last Thursday gave me a wetsuit though so that helped a lot!
Things I saw under water:
Sharks
Sea turtles
Clown fish
Leafy sea dragon
Lion fish
Sting rays
Sea cucumbers
Massive clams!
One of those nasty shellfish that kills you if you pick it up...
And many other things I don't know the name of! I have pictures, but they will have to wait until I am near a faster computer. Hehee, holidays are fun.
