• Mossman Gorge

    August 4 in Australia ⋅ ☁️ 19 °C

    Today was Tuesday and we visited Mossman Gorge. It was a lovely morning. You drive there and buy a ticket each for the bus that takes you up to the walking area. It cost $15 each. Same as they do in Cradle mountain but you can buy a pass there because there is so much to do. The walks are board walks here at Mossman. There is a longer hike but its not a proper track. So we walked the board walks though the rain forest and we walked the suspension bridge to nowhere. Lol.

    Im glad I ticked it of but its not a Gorge as it is more like viewing the Mossman river. Maybe it needs to be seen in wetter weather.

    We then called into a little beach side town called Cooya for our picnic lunch. You can see Port Douglas in the distance.

    We went down to Smeales Park to play yatzee and watch a sunset. It was to cloudy tonight. But every night this is where people go and gather. There is one photo of hardly a person and another one of it full. People had drums and guitars and a bunch of shirtless young men were playing soccer in the distance. Its a very chill hippy vibe.

    We went for a pizza. Another reminder to stick to making our own food. Wasn't very good. But we did get a nice icecream cone afterwards.

    Came back to a very noisy camp site. There is a very large back packer motel next door over the fence. They are noisy every night. Pool parties and doof doof and drunk screachy women and loud mouth blokes. Lol. So I'm tucked away in my van with the air con blasting to drown out the noise.

    We are heading to Daintree and Cape Tribulation tomorrow.
