June 6-9












Last night, we got to our hostel late and played cards until 2am with chocolate coins as our gambling choice..

Sunday, 2 out of the 8 of us went to Port Douglas for beaches, chatting, shopping, and lunch. Then bus-ed back to Cairns--more cards.

Monday we took the Aristocat snorkeling tour..we got picked up at 650am and hit 3 different reefs.

also 1 of the guys and i had a mission of how many ice cream/gelato shops we could find and how many different kinds to sample: 8 shops..13 different flavors:

8 Places & 13 Flavors: Cold Rock (Bubblegum), New Zealand (Rainbow), Baskin Robins (Citris Twist & Peanutbutter Chocolate), Dolic Gelati (Cookie Dough & Blueberry), Bellismic (Hazelnut & Kinder Surprise), Devine Gelato (Banana & Lime Sorbet), Vanilla Gelateria (Strawberry Yogurt & Apple Pie), Movenpic (Rhubarb)




Tuesday we rented a car and drove up the coast to Cape Tribulation...we took some pictures at well known gorge, then headed up for a Crocodile Boat Cruise..where we got binoculars and all and saw probably 10 crocodiles..pretty neat seeing them in their own element vs.. the cages...

then we went jungle swinging..
