Amazing different is Cairns and surroundings vs Sydney, to bad we didnt really had the time to explore as we had a very busy schedule. Its a very tropical surrounding and also nice and warm :)
The biggest boxing fight was on in australian history Mundine vs Green! It was packed in every bar who put the fight on! I found a nice spot on the blackjack table (yea.. grr they had no poker tables) facing the big screen in the Casino :)
I think total we drove around 1300 between cities and little villages, and we stopped in several cute little towns.
Hotelview over Cairns bay
Between the little towns land inwards, long roads nothing :) but very impressive..
On our last day we drove from Mackay to Rockhampton, where we dropped the car and hopped into a little 50 person propellor plane to go to Brisbane to catch a bigger flight back to Sydney
Funny waterway.. just makes you think why not straight across on the thin part.
The landing gear did his part... hovering towards runway in Brisbane
Late saturday evening back, a couple of hours sleep and I had to play golf with the social club at 6.15 in the morning.. pff.. I did play pretty good actually!
Was good to see Cairns and surroundings, and next time we gonna hit the great barrier reef and some islands when we are out there, as thats just on the coastline of Cairns.

Het lijken wel foto's van Bali of zo, je hebt helemaal niet het iedee dat dit ook Australie is.
Wij gaan morgenochtend rijden richting Italie om daar op 1 juni aan te komen. Dus zijn we alleen bereikbaar via de GSM of wanneer we internet verbinding kunnen krijgen via het notebookemailadres.
Groetjes ons
