Daintree, Qld

We started out today with a visit to the markets at Mossman. A pretty sad affair I’m afraid to report, so we didn’t stay long and headed off to the Daintree. It’s been ten years since we were here last so we expected some changes: Daintree village itself seems pretty much the same, as did the vehicular ferry across the river. We elected not to do the river cruise, they are just too focussed on finding crocodiles and we are a bit over them, to tell the truth.

Next stop was the Discovery Centre and we enjoyed our second visit, maybe even appreciated the rainforest more this time round. It doesn’t seem to have changed much, but it’s a good attraction and worth the effort and the price. We had a sandwich here and while eating lunch, Judy finally found a real live piece of fauna, a small turtle in the creek below our lunchtime perch.

We called into Cow Bay for a look at the beach and then made our way up to Cape Tribulation, which neither of us could remember much about, except for the beach, which as you might expect, hasn’t changed at all.
