We take a cute ferry across the Daintree River and what does Brian take a pictures of? |
Rickety old bridge...further up the road it narrowed to 1 lane because the other half SLID DOWN THE CLIFF! |
Daintree Rainforest |
Awesome hollow tree that wrapped around and choked out the host tree |
Loved these palms....about 6 foot diameter fronds! |
End of the road--Cape Tribulation |
Signs posted said "beware of crocodiles in mangroves." So naturally, lets go right in. |
Later on we took a trip to the Cairns Tropical Zoo.
Cassowarie...which we were able to identify thanks to this sign: |
Wombat |
$16 photo. Absolutely worth it! |

ReplyDeleteI am so jealous you got to hold a koala. HE LOOKS SO FUZZY!!! Please bring him to our November brunch k thanks. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was even better ladies when we saw koalas in the wild! With fuzzy wuzzy babies!! More pictures to come of our last week in Oz, unless people are getting bored of them?
ReplyDeleteFunny how when I think of Australia, I never think of 6-foot palm leaves. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI agree Kiley! I never expected Australia to be so lush. I guess I thought it would all be arid outback. We went to another rainforest in the south that we thought was even more beautiful--just put the photos up today. Cheers!
