Yvonne & Brian Hi - we have enjoyed reading your blog particularly about the bit of "Far" North Qld we visited not too long ago ie. Cairns, Port Douglas, Daintree & up to Cooktown. Glad to see you are both keeping well and enjoying another long adventure! Those Cassowarys must have heard you were coming - wonder what they're like on a sandwich?

Tony Sharrock I'm sure that looks like cassowary footprints on the beach at Etty, you must have just missed them.....

Philip Hi both of you. Sounds like you are having a great trip! We've just come down to your place for a couple of days - all is well, it helped when we found the heater in the cupboard, very cold past few days. Just been up watching the soccer with Samuel, sent him back to bed but I'll probably go for a walk. Enjoy the hot springs, wish we had them here today! Love from all of us

Deb I can't believe this is my parents! Well done and I am very pleased you've finally experienced the reef and did it justice with the snorkelling.

Carole Your cabin in the rainforest is my kind of place. Rob & I just love finding as many as we can in our travels. It looks great. Not that we are as well travelled as you. Maybe one day. Keep safe.

paula verhoeven Great to read your blog. It's like I have joined you on the trip....I wish......Nice blue skies but not here. The morning walk was pretty cold and windy and even a drizzle. It got worse later in the day. So got the fire going and switched the electric blanket and might watch some soccer or tennis before I fall asleep. Have a great journey, lots of sun and fun... Take care Paula
