Cairns, Queensland
We took the 12 hour day bus to Cairns along with a couple of people wet met on our Fraser Island tour, Mark and Patrick. They were following the same route, and this was actually our third bus journey with them since leaving Brisbane. We arrived at our hostel soaking wet even after getting a taxi from the bus stop, as it was pouring with rain. This unfortunately was to be the theme of our stay in tropical Cairns.
We were advised to spend as much time as possible...
