how amazing! we just cannot get over what we have seen whilst over here. everything we have done has made for a trip that we will never forget. the great barrier reef was as good as the pictures on postcards and the colourful fish and coral were breathtaking (unfortunately the pics don't really do it justice). we had a really good day out, the boat we went on was really impressive, we ate gorgeous food all day and managed to get out snorkelling on t...

nature at its best! we have just been on a 3 day trip into the rainforest which took us up from cairns to cape tribulation. it was just truly beautiful! known as the only place in the world where 2 world heritage sites meet - the 'rainforest' and the 'reef'. on our first day we drove up to and took a short walk through the daintree national park, here hayley took a paddle in the mossman gorge. the trip then took us on a river boat cruise...

wow!!!!! and just when thought our fraser island trip was so special, we followed it up with an absolutely amazing three day sail around the whitsunday islands. could not believe it was real, always believed the postcards were super imposed. the whole sailing adventure made for an unforgettable and exciting trip, something we have never experienced before (thank you john for the recommendation). we set out the first day from airlie marina...
