Cairns (pronounced cans)


 

Welcome to Cairns, Tim made a friend on the flight, Steve (who actually out talked Tim, which is no mean feat), a resident of Cairns who gave us some good tips for seeing the city.






Seeing a pelican off the esplanade was a highlight of the evening crazy looking birds.

Gorgeous tree arch.








Little reccy on the wharf for ferry to Fitzroy Island. 






Eat your heart out Jacques Cousteau! Oh my what a fab time we had snorkelling on Nudey Beach (fortunately in name only) After a short while getting used to the equipment, it’s been a long time since we snorkelled and even longer since Tim swam, the coral and fish we saw were absolutely amazing.  Can’t wait to see more of The Great Barrier Reef ( by the way flippers are hard work).

Dinner by the pool.
