After waking in our new hostel, Globetrotters international, we had our free breakfast. It was nothing compared to Darwin as all it comprised of was cereal. Over the next week we spent our time walking around Cairns. We had to wait in Cairns so that we could receive our parcel from the UK. We attempted to look for work but had no success. We asked around the marina, however, all of the work involved paying for a tour first, then working for free accommodation. Ca...

After our emotional fawewell to parents and after Emma had calmed down due to thinking she was going to Australia on her own (my passport number did not match my working holiday visa due to getting a new passport) we boarded the plane from Newcastle. Flights were all fine and hassle-free. Plenty to eat on each flight and rather full by the time we landed in Perth.
