Palm Cove and Kuranda

Friday 28th August

This morning was more relaxing as no dashing off. 2 hours at the pool was good fun. It's hot here, about 26c but with no breeze the boards around the pool were burning our feet. There are surprisingly few people at the pool given the number of apartments, only 2 other families and us, but the local water park is shut for winter until 5th September!!

After lunch at the apartment we drove up to Kuranda, a village in the rainforest to look at the markets. They were not quite as we expected, one area was definitely more hippy than aboriginal, but we made a few purchases and came back down to Palm Cove for dinner, via the look out for the Barron falls.

Saw a whole field of wild wallabies/kangaroos at the side of the road on the way home. Dusk seems to be the best time to spot them.
