Amazing!

Cairns was amazing! I had such a good time. The weather was beautiful and the diving was beyond anything I've done before. There was so much life to the reef I could'nt believe it. We were also lucky enough to see 3 adult Humpback whales and a baby. They were so close to the boat I could actually see the smile of the mama whale. I was screaming and jumping up and down on the boat, I could barley beleilve what I was seeing. It was so exciting!
We rented a car the next day and drove to Port Douglas. There is a beautiful beach called 4 mile beach, we went swimming and sun tanned, but you know me, I can only lie in the sun for so long and... yup, I was off exploring the beach. But guess what I found...Starfish. There must have been 50 I found. They were moving among the rocks at the end of the beach so I was playing with them for a good hour. It was so cool.
The next day we did a rainforest/crock tour at Cape Tribulation. What an amazing place. This is one of the only places in the world where two world heritage sites meet. The great barrier reef and the rainforest. It was gorgeous. THEN we went on the crock boat cruise. We saw 6 crocks in the wild. You had to look for them on the banks of the river, but they were there, and there was one we found that was almost 5 meters big!!!! They are so scary looking and so prehistoric its hard to believe they're even real!
It was a jammed packed weekend but so amazing I want to do it all again, anyone want to go?

Off to Carins!!!!!

I'm headed north to do a bit of scuba diving! i cant wait. Im checking off one of my life checklist points!
Ill let you know all about my adventure when i come back from it!!!!
Hoping to see humpbacks up close as they are breeding up there right now!
