Soon after arriving in Cairns, I headed off for a 2 day trip to the tropical Cape Tribulation along with Matt, Hanna, Tasha and Chris (whoI'd just rejoined up with in Cairns). We stopped off on a few places on route for a few small walks around the jungle fringes and also saw myself jumping off a rock straight into a rapid with Hanna, which then saw me dragged all the way down stream which was entertaining.After arriving at our hostel for the evening we found...

I went off the beaten track for a night and stayed in Krombit National Park- aka a Cattle station!<p> Whilst here I did many very strange things... firstly I got on horseback and mustered in loads of goats back into their pens which was great fun- if a little sore on the backside.
