It was so very windy there but was lovely to wake up right on the beach in the middle of nowhere. We left fairly quickly the next morning due to the wind and headed into Cooktown for a wander around and some photo taking. Left Cooktown via Battlecamp Road and headed towards Musgrave. Along the way we stopped to look at Isabella Falls. They are very pretty. We stopped at Lake Emma for lunch, checked out the pretty Horseshoe Lagoon which was covered in water ...

It was humid in the rainforest but it was very pretty and well worth a look. Our next stop was at the Daintree River where we had to cross via the ferry.

We are all a bit excited to see the others and to exchange stories from when we left home until now. As we started down the ...

We were very organised today, a mechanic on the edge and a goose on the loose with a hema, leaving Emerald just after 7am. Straight to Charters Towers. We needed to do some calculations as to our route from here and according to the map and a bit of miss management we ended up on a wee little dirt road that was heading nowhere fast and had absolutely no idea where we where going...LOST... about face back the way we had come and thanks to the lovely folk at the ...
