Just been catching up on your blogs (been busy job hunting - got one!) Well done for doing your own thing regarding tours etc. You're obviously getting quite experienced with all the travelling and know what you do and dont want! The only time when I'm not sick on a boat is when I'm outside so I know what you mean.

Cant wait for the next instalment , just wish I was there! xxx

So glad you managed to stick it out, it really is an awesome sight isn't it, a different world completely.

Loving the blog, it really helps on a slow day in the office to escape to your blog!!!

Love and hugs

Lucy

Love the ring, accommodation looks really good although not too keen on the resident Gekko!!...............Dont eat too much of that lovely looking food now!!!xxxx

Hey mate, mum just emailed me your blog stuff so i've just been having a look ..... obviously whilst very busy at work :0) It all sounds out of this world and i really really want to come over. I'm glad you're having the best time but can't wait to see ya's but remind me not to give you a hello kiss seeing as you licked an ant's arse .... minger :0) Mum said a huntsman (don't know if that's right) walked over your hand and you didn't even scream, that's some chuffing good going mate, well impressed!! All the people you meet sound really lovely but go careful mind. Anyway best crack on with my not so busy work load. Have fun and TAKE CARE .... see ya xx

I cant believe you licked an ant's bum! I'm so impressed! Port Douglas sounds a lovely place, although not too keen on spiders as big as a saucer!! You're meeting a real cross section of nationalities, I think thats great. Keep the reports coming, you write them so well!!xx

what on earth were you thinking about licking an ants ass?!?!?!?!?! not one of the things on your 'to do before you die' list surely?! I'd also go for number 2. how cool to say you've done a diving lesson! then also you can tell us if its worth doing and we can also opt for the same trip! thanks thanks! see you soon xx

Hi Erin,

Happy belated birthday! Looks like your having a fantastic time.

The best way to get in and out of a hammock is to sit in the middle and swing your legs round! (according to Carol)

Continue having a great time,

Love Carol, Howard, Holly and Rob

Ps. I would leave it at just the ants when experimenting, dont think a kangaroo would be so tasty!

When you were growing up we used to say don't talk to strangers, be kind to people, watch when crossing the road, but we forgot to say 'dont lick ants bums' sorry.

Knowing you and how sick you get I would say option 3 and put it on your parents credit card. Dad and I think number 2 with free diving lesson, out of this world!!!!

loving the licking an ant's bum!!! ha!!

id go for option 2!

Hi - Cairns was definitely one of my favourite places and Cape Tribulation is a must! Forget about the sea sickness, I thought I would get sea sick, but out by the reef it is fine. I think whichever trip you do it will be amazing. Love the ant story, idon't know if i would have been up for that!
