Great Barrier Reef, Queensland Aug 25, 2006 Spent the day snorkelling on Agincourt reef right out on the outer reef, very cool, saw lots of coral & millions of fish. Great day.
Port Douglas, Queensland Aug 24, 2006 We've headed up to Port Douglas for a few days. Spent this afternoon on "4 mile beach", very nice & not too many people. Had a walk around town & booked a couple of tours. Tomorrow we're out on the reef & the day after we're going to Cape Tribulation.
Cairns, Queensland Aug 23, 2006 Spent this afternoon at the man made lagoon outside of our hostel on the seafront. This evening we went to Reef Teach & had a lecture by a marine biologist on coral & fish identification, so when we go to the reef we have a better idea of what we're looking at. Really interesting & the guy really knew his stuff.
Cairns, Queensland Aug 22, 2006 We've just arrived in Cairns & its a lovely 27C. Our hostel is on the Esplanade & its literally right by the lagoon & seafront. Going to have a couple of days relaxing, as our time at Ayers Rock Resort was non stop & our latest wake up time was 5.15am.
