I have worked some mad hours up here to complete the renovation, hopefully next week it will be complete! But it amongst it all, although challenging, we have enjoyed and really loved Port Douglas and the local area.
From Kayak fishing Palm Cove, cycling the Captain Cook highway back to Cairns, camping at Granite Gorge or jumping into the falls at Mossman Gorge they have all been day out adventures, way too short.
I've enjoyed days with my wife and kids on the beach. We have never lived by the beach so this has been really great. Cutting down coconuts and drinking the water, or bringing them home and shaving the flesh out of the nut - either way is good beach food by my standards. And free!
We came 3rd in the Carnivale sand castle competition and got our winning smiles in the local paper. The kids are still talking about how the dragon wasn't actually a sand castle so how did we win..... We decided to go build a proper sand castle with a tunnel and everything! Cool kids.
Queensland......... Good-bye
