5th and 6th Oct. we stayed at Walkabout Palms Townsville.
We took the car ferry to Magnetic Island for the day.

7th and 8th Oct we stayed at Mango Tree Park, Innisfail, back to the doctors.

9th to 19th Oct we stayed at Coconut Holiday Resort, Cairns. Andrew, Cian and Molloy joined us for 3 days before they flew to Singapore to stay with Natalie and meet up with Mary who was at a conference.
The park is fabulous geared for children with 3 pools, tennis court, jumping pillow, mini golf, water spout activities and many more things.
13th and 14th Oct. we left caravan at the park and flew to Bamaga, stayed  over night before boarding a 4 wheel drive to the tip of Australia, Cape York, the road finished before reaching the tip, (see  photo's) One would think there would be a path, not so, there is a 20 minute climb over rocks to get there.
We are glad we made the journey to the tip, the countryside is very different including accommodation.
Andrew said, "well Mum you went to the wilderness"

19th, 20th and 21st Oct we stayed at Glengarry Holiday Park, Port Douglas, we were in Port Douglas 30 years ago and as you would expect, nothing was the same.

22nd, 23rd and 24th we are staying at Atherton Woodlands Tourist Park, we are enjoying the weather a little cooler than all the 30/32 degrees we have had.
We have been to to Crystal Mine, Peanut World and today we are going to the Lake.
