Living the dream
The 19th of September we started our trip. The first stop was Port Douglas. We arrived in the middle of the night and woke up with the beach right side our window. We ran to the beach and jumped around with happiness! Port Douglas is a beautiful small town with a lot of picturesque restaurants and shops. We stayed there for one day and spent the day o nthe lovley beach.
Our next stop was Daintree where we had a crocodile cruise in the morning - we saw 2 adults, 1 baby and a big snake up in the tree. It was cool to see the crocs in their real habitat. Then we continued our trip up to Cape Tribulation by a ferry across the river. Cape Tribulaton is one of most beautiful places we have seen. The sand on the beaches was so white and the water cristal clear, it was unspeakable beauty. We stayed in Cape Trib. for one night and we made a fire on the beach. We headed back to Carins in the evening and stopped by at our old resturant in Trinty for some dinner. It felt so wierd to be a guest and not be working there. We came back to Cairns on the night and we changed to our party clothes and headed out to the clubs with the most awesome peeps ever!

The day after we headed to Josephine falls with some friends amongst one we met in Byron Bay when we where there in april, Reed. The nicest guy ever! We spent the whole day there sliding down the water falls and just enjoying the view. When we got back we made an early night since the Great Barrier Reef waited for us the following day.
The boat picked us up 7 am and it took us about 1 hour to reach the reef. Linnea was first in the water for her scuba dive and Johanna, Erik and David wasen't far behind with thier introcution dive. We saw some amazing things thier amongst turtles, nemo fish, sting rays, barracudas and another poisonous fish with we can't recall the name of. After the dive we snorkled and at some amazing food on the boat - shrimps, salmon and a whole lot of other delicous things! The day couldn't have been better and now we have checked the Great Barrier Reef of our list - [CHECK!] When we came back to shore we had pizza night with all our mates at koala and then it was time for "see u later hugs" like we always say, cause we have reckoned that u never met a person just once in your life! But it was still very hard to leave everybody and we r gonna miss them loads.
After the hugs and tears we headed the roads and made our way to mission beach, but we had a pretty excited experince along the way. Linnea and Johanna had the front seats cause we need to keep our men in the back (!) when we saw something strecthed across the road...:
- Johanna: Linnea did u just see that!?
- Linnea: Was that a snake..?
- Both: AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!
David and Nico jumped out of thier seats and we turned the car back to get a better look. The snake was FREAKIN huge! We reckoned it was a python and seriously it was like 4 meters long. Talk about that we shit in our pants.

After 5 hours restless sleep having night mares of snakes crawling in our bed we got up 7 am today again to do our sky dive over mission beach and the reef. It was incredable we just can't describe it, but it is a must to try it one day! The rest of the day we spent on the beach with Andre, Cal and Sydney who also did thier sky dive a couple of hours after us. They had a bit more luck and spotted a hammerhead shark from the sky, sweet!
Today treats us with a trip to townswill and the full moon party tomorrow WOOP WOOP! We can't wait!
Sorry for bad updates resently but it is gonna be like this on our way down the coast since we're not gonna have any internet. But we will do our best!
The fact of the day;
The fact of the day;
Weeeih we have succeeded, David have started to get style. But his wallet ain't likin' it!... But we do nananana
Peace out from mission beach! Lot's of OZ love from Johanna and Linnea.

Jag sa ju att Cape Trib är fantastiskt!!Bodde där några veckor och red på stranden bl.a och hade det döskönt. Utanför Townsville finns en trevlig ö att bo på ett tag och där bor det possums på taket som kommer på kvällen och gör en sällskap till middagen. När jag hoppade fallskärm (i Sverige) fick jag inte en lika fin utsikt som ni fick. Visst är det häftigt. I morgon ska seglena och masten av båten och nästa helg ska hon upp. Nu är det höst!! Njut av solen och varandra. kramar från oss alla.
