Port Douglas

Port Douglas is a short car ride from Cairns.  People say Port Douglas was what can was like 20 years ago.  It is a quiet little beach side town where we visited a place called Mossman Gorge, Daintree and Cape Tribulation.

We didn't see many big cros but we met this little guy named Barry.  I didn't love him as much as Pearl the Koala but he was still a good bloke.

We boarded a barge with our car to cross the river into Cape Tribulation.  From there we took the rode up as far as we could before the paved road ended and it was only a dirt path.
