Stillwater Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 The surrounding of Cairns has enough sights for some days of exploration. And I do this with a scenic flight from Aeroglen / YBCS. When you set the calendar to dry season you get clear skies, but only low tide at Barron River falls. This flight leads us north along the spectacular coastal highway... ... to the visitor center... ... at Mossman Gorge. From there it is not far to the Daintree River ferry, ... ... you better not go fishing or swimming there. But when you drive up the hills to the north... ... you soon reach the famous rainforest. In contrast to the regular tourist we can take a shortcut back to accomodation in Palm Cove. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gumbypickett Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Very nice shots Gerold. Today is the day QLD opened up it's borders to everyone, without having to worry about vaccination proof paperwork. But give it a short time and they will close again. It's been a bit like a yoyo up there. Oops sorry you were promoting the area. Come to Tassie for the best experience ever. cheers Gumby 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we are (globally) not used to that since, say, 1945. 7 hours ago, gumbypickett said: Come to Tassie for the best experience ever. Will do, Gumby, will do. In virtual soon, in real as soon as possible. Unfortunately I do not play tennis. 3 hours ago, boetie said: Hopefully that’s the end of it Gumby. Living right on the border it’s been a real pain in the bum!!!!! These previously-unnoticed inland borders add a bit to the craziness of these days. I live in one state and work (in case I drive to the office) in another one. With slightly different rules. And these rules change nearly every other week.

I fear the worst for Martyn, I haven't heard from him for three weeks. I hope he's not in prison. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted January 14, 2022 Share Posted January 14, 2022 Some great, scenic tourism shots and another nice looking adventure from you Gerold I enjoyed the copious insertion of real world pictures to help with the immersion. Great stuff! Landon 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel a slight irony in your words, and the upcoming Olympic Games will show us the relations. But still we all dislike that we can not travel the way the world was 2 years ago. And it is by coincidence that I post the travel promotion on the day QLD opens, according to Gumby! 11 minutes ago, Jack Sawyer said: Sadly yes, I agree.

And you were our only contact to this fantastic guy! I hope his birds keep him busy, I just read (in Australian Geography) it is a good breeding season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great stuff! Landon Thanks a lot, Landon. I always enjoy making such posts on my own footsteps, and I will keep on dropping some of these proofs from time to time. Just wait until OLC Asia is released... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
