Bloody Intrepid

Daintree Eco lodge. Now owned by Intrepid, like most other things. Bloody hell Daryl and Manch.

Delightful restaurant overlooking pond where frogs provide strong background music. Chalets dotted around the hill and a couple of average walking tracks. Tried a night walk but not much action apart from a spider!

Lodge building was destroyed in 2023 by typhoon - now rebuilt. Good staff though no sign of local employees as the blurb suggests.

Small swimming pool turned out to be wildlife spot. Funky 'Northern jewel spider' that looks nothing like a spider, praying mantis, centipede and large bug (cicada?).

Special dinner for 2 on private deck but CW not feeling good so finished off trout myself as C lying down. Just been offered lemony pudding - damn. Don't tell C.
