G’day from Cairns!<\/p>\n

Well no, we didn’t find any lift to Cairns. There were some ads, but every time we asked it was about a female company \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"The other option was to take a flight and so we flew from Darwin to Cairns on Saturday morning. Cairns is about the same size as Darwin. The temperature is a bit cooler at this time but is still around 30C\u00b0. Like in Darwin, there is a waterfront to let everyone enjoying the water. We quickly found out why the city was full of colours by night. The Cairns festival had begun 1 day before our arrival and there were lots of activities in the city center. One of the nice things to see is the huge bat colony living in the big trees by the library. It’s impressive to watch them taking off at dawn.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We met Gregor during the week (another friend from the magic bus). He was here for about 1 months. As a good Scottish citizen, Gregor showed us some pubs he had spotted in the city center. Apart from wandering in the center, we went to the botanical garden and spent some time on the workout spots along the esplanade to burn some calories \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

\"\"After 6 days staying in the city, on Friday we went to Cape tribulation, a famous place close to Cairns. Actually Marko rent a car for about 2 weeks and invited me to join him. We took two fellow travelers with us, Noa an Israeli girl and Max a German. We spent 3 days there. After about 3 weeks in a row in cities, it was quite nice to hit the road again.<\/p>\n

\"\"During these 3 days around Cape tribulation, we did some nice walks. We went for a stroll through the Daintree rainforest the first day. It is called rainforest because of the high amount of rainfall the place gets per year. After a night in a camping on the way, Saturday morning, we hiked the Mont Sorrow (the second real hike I’ve seen so far in Australia) and on the way back we saw a Cassowary<\/a>! We stayed on a free campsite Saturday night on the way back to Cairns and we visited the market of Port Douglas the next day.<\/p>\n

We are now back in Cairns. I will spend my last night here. I’m joining Henry and some other travelers tomorrow. He is driving an 8 seats minibus and he is heading down south. I have no idea where this will lead me. I will stop making suppositions concerning the future as nothing ever happens as expected.<\/p>\n

Take care!<\/p>\n
