Ended up at Alfonsino's for dinner. As predicted I didn't wander far - 2 doors from the Thai place, next door to the bahn Mi and across a carpark from my hotel! The pizza was quick, blistered and very tasty - all signs this place knows. All the ingredients named and origin acknowledged. It was also not stupid huge! The red was montepulciano - a snap with K having the same at Enzo's with dinner. Dawn would have a knowing smile! This morning a pleasant walk to Kopi Stop and then a detour home via the Esplanade Park. A cracker of a morning. I had a late check out so a couple of hours at the pool. Dropped the hire car off - I was just saying to K I had never driven an electric or hybrid car - now I have. The Corolla was a hybrid. Would know any difference other than it didn't much to fuel up at the end. What it did have was the myriad of safety add ons that we supposedly need these days but make driving a misery. The Qantas lounge was open!! It has been closed every other time I have been here. Quite impressive - lots of different areas, very light and airey and quite a variety of food. Nice platter options like dolmades, pickled Italian veg, eggplant and a really very good rendang. Rich, coconutty and falling apart. Kudos!! Flight seems to be on time. Cairns appears to be the only place in Australia that's raining - but that's ok! I enjoy Darwin but I think I would miss the wet tropics and the rainforest. Arrived back in Cairns and - well, my nice comments re wet tropics have come back to bite! My home town is wet! Oh well - only a day at work and then...✈️✈️もっと詳しく

旅行者 A class act she would have chosen but actually two bags that have done serious miles - only ever carry on though!
