Hey, whit water rafting was fun but after doing a sky dive the adrenaline wasnt exactly the same! plus i decided im too competitive to do it because i ended up getting angry at rocks for getting in the way. It was still a fun day out and we got to do a treck through the rainforest before hand lugging 15 kile rucksacks (i only got one because there it was spare and th guy had ran out of men to carry them so in my most geordie voice i said 'give us it here man' which i regreted when i fell over in the mud!)

We took a trip up to th cascades (me, sophie, welsh joe and his friend tom) on two scooters (yes mum has already told me that il be the death of her but they were safe!) and jumped into pools of fresh water with waterfalls etc. and they had th biggest spiders ive ever seen but it was a fun day.

Had a few nights out in cairns before we left found the best pub/bar on our last night where u could get main course, dessert and drink for ten dollars so 5 pound, typical tht we found it on our last night!

Just arrived in Sydney now, didnt really want to leave cairns but had flights booked. Its really different coming from cairns which is possibly the smallest city ive ever seen with open air swimming pools/lagoons in th city centre to sydney which is ridiculously massive! Were going to go and do the boast trip in sydney harbour tomorrow and I'm going to sort my photos out in the next few days and put them on

lots of love alex xxxx
