After a good breakfast at the campsite, we took a very winding coastal road to Port Douglas. Just to see what's going on there and especially what excursion options they offer. First, we drove to the "Four Miles Beach" lookout... just a beach... so back down we went, ended up in a wrap bar and worked on the blog. After an hour, I got bored, so I headed towards the harbor to look for crocodiles. Unfortunately, not a single one to be seen. After passing various small shops, I arrived back at Basti about 40 minutes later, who was now in the dive shop. Quick stop at Coles to get groceries, and then we headed back. In short... Port Douglas is nice, but not a must-see!

We had planned a stop for the return trip: at the stack stones (see above)... we can't think of a better word for them! Hundreds of these formations stand directly between the road and the sea. Basti was here 4 years ago, first with his mom and then with acquaintances, so naturally he took pictures and sent them to them.

The journey continued and shortly before Cairns we saw them... tons of wallabies in the meadows next to the road. Unfortunately, we couldn't park there, so we drove a bit further and ended up in the parking lot of a Bowls club, politely asked if that was okay, and then walked back on foot.
