Queensland 2018 - Part Four - One way up and another way down.


Well Dear Readers.
See what all the Queensland sunshine and humidity does to my hair!
Really!.. I look like an old granny in the above picture.

But I'll never catch up to, or be as old as, the grumpy old man in the photo below! Ha!

I am reliably informed that grumpy is not an attitude,
its a lifestyle choice! 

(If you see the T-shirt with that slogan can you let me know so I can buy it for him for Christmas).


 Anyway, enough prattle,  today we went up the Skyrail near cairns.


This was a great trip across the top of the rain forest and  finishing at the village of Kuranda.




We then spent a couple of hours having lunch and wandering around the markets.

 I bought a comb...
Did you know I have negative hair so I need a positive comb!

(Hey, whats that snorting noise? It must be Mr Grumpy from the above pic).

Anyway Its a beautiful comb. Its carved out of cow horn in the shape of a curlew... 
(and it cost $70).



 So the return trip was down the mountain via the train.


 We went gold class, so it included snacks and beverages...





And its another big day out tomorrow, as we are going out onto the Great Barrier Reef.
