Oh joy - we have a bus journey up to Karuunda - its up a hill! Bus drivers are not keen on slowing down around the sharp corners and we have both left nail marks on the chair in front - i think the sickie feeling is a common theme in this area! Up in the canopy of the rainforest it is actually feeling a little bit cooler - but still sticky - had a good moch around the "hippie" shops and enjoyed the views down to Cairns (i told you the pictures are comi...

Second Boat Trip! This one is a stupid oclock start again - think we were on the bus at 7.15 and get dropped at the Wharf to aboard our Katameran (spelt as said - not how its spelt i know!) Off we sail for 2 hours - yes we are both feeling this one - and it was even commented on about how we looked and were we out the night before - hmm the cheek as if we would - it took a lot of convincing that we were telling the truth!

What time do we have to get up!!!! I think it was before 7am (yes its becky writting this!) Off we stagger to the bus stop with our beach wear and get transported to the dock side! Boat trip day Whoo Whoo! We are going to find Kristy an Island Paradise - i think with a choice of 74 islands even she may find one! First stop and out we get for a spot of snorkelling - this is a first for Kristy - and after the first few minutes - we were off and spotting fishies! ...
