From Mission Beach we took a detour to the Tablelands which is an area in the rainforest full of gorgeous waterfalls and pretty lakes. We stopped and had a swim in Millaa Millaa which is the waterfall from the Peter Andre Mysterious Girl music video (if you don't know it youtube it, it's stunning), then we headed off to a huge lake full of little turtles. The water was a lot warmer as the previous waterfall was in the shade, a few of us swam in it but as it's high up the weather was chilly and lots of people didn't want to get wet and cold. We climbed a tree hanging over the lake and jumped off it, it was high and I was a little hesitant at first but then I thought back to the 111m bridge I jumped off in Zambia and it put it all into perspective and I jumped, I did get one hell of a wedgie but it was so fun.
Then we set off for Cairns, where we're staying in a massive hostel called Gilligans, which use to be a hotel and is really posh and has a great club. We had an end of trip meal in a pub and free beer courtesy of the OzExperience bus. I've loved their buses and the trips they do, it was sad it was my last bus but I've met up with lots of people I met along the coast in Cairns and that was really great. Today I've just been sorting out all my stuff for my flight on Tuesday and not doing a lot as it's a bit cloudy. I feel like my tans fading a bit but I'm definitely browner than most of you so I'm not worried :p
Love you all, miss you too xxxxxx
