Me and my friends Anika and Viola went to Cairns of the midsemester break to see the Great Barrier Reef and Cairns.
The first two days we spent around the city of Cairns.
On Tuesday we went snorkeling in the great barrier reef.
Wednesday I went on a tour and saw two fantastic waterfalls, including the one picture above which is also featured in Herbal Essence commercials, hence the emphasis on the hair. I also saw a platypus and finally tried lamgintons.
Thursday we went to Kuranda, a village in the rainforest, or better known as a tourist trap. Quite disappointing, except for a awesome little flying fox sanctuary.
Friday we went the a farmers market and saw lots and lots of fresh tropical fruit and I tried a Star Apple.
Saturday, we hunted and gathered for food with an aboriginal guide and went on a unsuccessful crocodile hunting cruise on the daintree river.
I didn't get into the Daintree Rainforest like I would have liked. Its tough to get around when you don't have a car and can't rent one.
All in All, I liked Cairns and getting out of Sippy Downs
