  • Once we had driven up off the coast onto the plateau above, it did not take long to begin to experience what the great dry Australian outback must be like. We were only on the edge of it and already it was noticeably short of trees and very hot.

     We last visited some 12 years after you Glenn - Cairns growing fast, but the surrounding areas don't change. Don't knock the Chrysler, we had one of those ourselves once! :-)

     A lovely trip with your children - I would love to visit but will have to wait until retirement
