Cape Tribulation

Moving north from Mossman we started to get the feeling we were almost in the woop woop. Cossing over the Daintree river by barge, into the rain forest which just abounds (I don't know any better words for it) Cell coverage was getting patchy at best. All in all we were starting to feel that we were away from it all! We stayed for a few nights at Noah's beach where again we were just a short stroll to the shore which doubled as our morning shower substitute and Tanya's office (there was just enough signal there to download and mark her student's assignments - between the high tides) It has been many years since I had played in such wonderful surf that just kept on rolling in. We also spent a couple of afternoons at the tree top walk and also a really interesting morning at an insect museum. The Daintree is a wonderful place.

Did you know that they grow tea in the Daintree region - well you do now!

On the 'my cup is half empty' side of things, a couple of cans of coke costs $9.00 ($1.00 in Cairns... Ok you have to be in a supermarket and buy 24 at a time, but $9.00! Yes we are in the woop woop!)
