Like delicious mince meat pies. Did you ever wonder what those are? It's just a pie filled with ground beef and a gravy sauce. We had the most delicious meat pies on our drive. But since it sounds weird calling them pies, I have renamed them tasty meat bowls of goodness.
We of course had to visit the Giant Mango (that really looks like an Easter egg)
Tyto Wetlands
Koala Centre! (This koala was actually a diva. She enjoyed posing for pictures, but was very heavy!)
Baby wallaby looking for a snack
Mossman Gorge
And Cape Tribulation, which is where Captain Cook’s ship wrecked during his circumnavigation of Australia. Hence the name.
Probably the most exciting part of our stay in Cairns was the dive course we completed. We are now certified to dive up to 60 feet below the surface! After two days of pool and classroom training, we boarded a boat to dive the Great Barrier Reef. A few of the sites included white tip sharks, schools of fish, Nemo, turtles and an unending variety of coral. Amazing! It was an unforgettable experience that everyone should try. We have pics so if you're interested in seeing any shoot me an email and we'd love to hear from anyone that is a diver too!
