Leisurely day in tropical rainforest

This morning we boarded the Kuranda Scenic Railway for an adventure in the rainforest. The train leaves Cairns, which is a sea level, and climbs 325m to Kuranda through 15 hand carved tunnels, 55 bridges and 98 turns. It takes 2 hours to travels it's 33km of rail!!!! The railway was built in the late 1800's as a supply route for the gold rush. Once in Kuranda, we visited the Koala Gardens where Nancy was able to hold and get a picture with "Milky" the koala and we fed wallabies and kangaroos. After lunch we visited "birdworld" where birds are in a free flight display and we were able to feed them snacks. They couldn't get enough of Tim!!! Then we took a stroll in the rainforest before boarding the train for the ride back to Cairns during which we saw kangaroos in the wild!!!! Pretty awesome day.Читать далее
