In the
holidays I had the chance to fly to Cairns for eight days. And I must say: IT
WAS AMAZING!
If u think
u know Australia after you have seen Adelaide, Melbourne and Sydney, I must
tell u: U dont! Far North Queensland is magic and different! A whole other
Australian experience!!!
The
population is even more mixed up than in Adelaide. Plus there are lots of
educated Aborigines and u can really see how well they are integrated up there.
No matter where u go, everywhere are palms and they have a lagoon right at the
sea where u can have a swim for free in the middle of the city. At the Reef
Terminal u can take a ferry out to the sea and discover the Great Barrier Reef.
I saw a whale and a sea turtle among many other colourful fish!
The nature
is simply magnificent and the slogan ‘the rainforest meets the reef’ suits perfectly.
After all the water adventure you can take a cable car into the mountains and
hike through the rainforest and see tree kangaroos and cassowaries!
And if u
prefer swimming in lakes and trying to hug giant trees u can go to the
Tablelands where I also saw my first platypus and huge crocodiles!
So if u get
the chance to travel u north, go to Cairns as it is a totally different
experience!
