We weren’t able to blog while on the road, so I’ll post some photos from our trip to Australia now that we’re back. We flew from Chicago – Dallas – Brisbane – Cairns, spent the night in Cairns, then drove up north of the Daintree River to Cape Tribulation. Colette and Colman recommended this area to us, and we are really glad we were able to go. The Cape is off the grid, but it didn’t feel like we were roughing it at all because the restaurants and all up there use a combination of sustainable energy and generators to do things like cook really good food for the tourists.
Queensland seems to have two very appealing mottos:
Sunny I’ll give them but smart, I doubt it! I hope there’s some pictures coming up of New South Wales’ motto … “The First State”
For us, Queensland was the first state we visited, so it’s getting covered first. Stay tuned for posts from NSW, the real First State, hopefully later this week!
