A Holden Statesman, to which they upgraded us. Not the approriate vehicle up here.

Our room in Port Douglas

Usually there is a hiking trail aross this river somewhere here..

An example of the well maintained walkways around here.

A challenge for the Statesman, probably more so for the driver.

4-miles beach with stinger warnings.

Fruit bats everywhere.

A typical stinger warning. Should probably be taken seriously, so we did not swim in the sea.

On our way to Kuranda. We did not take the antique train but used our rental.

The Barron river.

Falls of the Barron River.

Our last hours in Port Douglas. From here we drove to Cairns and flew into Sydney.
