    Cairns

    August 30, 2021 in Australia ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C

    A four day stop ended up being twelve as we were fortunate to wangle our way into three markets whilst in this little patch of paradise. Staying at Coconut Cairns Resort was nice, especially having power for the aircon was a welcome thing. It’s definitely steamy and doesn’t cool down much in the evening, especially when it rains. Have to say we enjoyed sitting under the awning watching the rain bucket down - even getting our feet wet wasn’t a drama. Sorry for the people opposite us who lost their entire awning when the weight of the water ripped it from the van. 😨
    The other awesome thing about this park were the Lipstick Palms! Just beautiful!
    We did a few drives and walks with Jasper on the beach, but crocs are a thing so followed the locals on this one - if there’s nobody there doing it…don’t be the first. 🐊
