Today we pack up and fly back home for 3 weeks. The caravan is left in storage at the rear of a caravan park in Mareeba and the car at Cairns airport.
Back to Sydney
Emerald Creek Falls
A great find close to Mareeba. Grade 3 & 4 walk to the waterfalls followed by an excellent picnic lunch
Best region for coffee in Qld?
It was hard to pick which business had the best coffee in the Atherton Tablelands
Mt Uncle Distillery
Specialising in gin production, this business also had beautiful gardens, caravan park and farm animals
Atherton region day touring
We (Brian, Jenny, Jennifer) visited a number waterfalls, Nerada tea plantation, curtain fig tree and more.
Morning coffee
Introduced Brian & Jenny to ”Coffee Works”. Just one of the many Atherton Tableland outlets which produce & serve really good quality coffee in pleasant surroundings.
70th Birthday
I celebrated my 70th birthday with Jennifer, Bob & Sue and Brian & Jenny. The celebrations began on the evening before my birthday at a Cairns restaurant followed the next day on my birthday at a restaurant on the Marina… it was a long lunch and a memorable occasion. Feeling incredibly blessed 🥹
Crystal Cascades
Today’s swim was closer and this time with Bob & Sue and Brian & Jenny. Very refreshing and good fun.
Babinda Boulders & Josephine Falls
Just over an hours drive south of Cairns are Babinda Boulders and Josephine Falls. Another invigorating swim in fresh, cool waters.
Skyrail
Brian & Jenny arrived in Cairns yesterday. After dropping them off at their accommodation we had drinks and an evening meal together 😊. Sooo good spending time with family. In the morning we took the Skyrail up to Kuranda (train was not operating).
