Finally back in the land of Internet connection - just! So, a picture of the eclipse which really does not do the event any justice but worth seeing anyway. We'll have loads more to show once we return. The remainder of the day yesterday was spent relaxing on Fitzroy island and reflecting on the events of that morning. We walked in the islands natural rainforest (picking up a few insect bites along the way) and generally lazed around until the afternoon tropical rain arrived and so we took refuge in the islands bar!
Today was a full day involving a return on the ferry to Cairns followed by a fantastic cable car ride over 5 miles of tropical rainforest. We lunched at a village called Kuranda and then travelled back down to Cairns on an old railway with some great scenic spots on the way. Dinner was at a Greek taverna involving lots of plate smashing and now it's time for bed again before our journey to India begins tomorrow afternoon!
