Today was a really chilled day. We had a little ly in before making our way into Cairns to check it out. Everyone had prepared us for an awful, touristy, hole but it really isn't! OK, there are lots of tourist shops and obivously a lot of travellers but there are also some lovely restaurants by the lagoon, which is also nice (a lot nicer than Airlie's!)
