Half an hour away from Cooktown is a cool place called The Lion's Den. It's a great pub with heaps of character. We chose a non-powered site and set up for one night. After a little rest we went for a swim in the fresh water river next to the camp. We were a litle hesitant, even though everyone said there were no crocs in there. After a little while we relaxed and followed Charli in. It was so lovely and cool, which was nice compared to the heat of the sun!...

We had a fabulous time in Cooktown! We pulled into the caravan park and were welcomed by a man in only his shorts who pointed us to the site. It was an awesome site with big shade sails over the top of them. That meant we didn't need to put the awning up! It was also very cool under it and the concrete didn't get hot either. As soon as we pulled up Andy looked down to a site a few down from us and saw one of his mate's parents. They hadn't seen Andy in yea...
