As I have mentioned before I have this friend who does a blog. She is a fabulous writer and I just read her many posts tonight, catching up from a few days when I didn’t get a chance to write and she is putting me to shame.

I haven’t been very exciting lately but will try to do better.

Today I took a tour of the Daintree Rainforest, Cape Tribulation and the Mossman Gorge. It was a very full day but sooo worth the money. We began the day with a “jungle” type cruise on the Daintree River. This is croc country, so the goal was to spot as many crocs as possible and not be eaten by them. The first half was pretty uneventful, but by the end of the cruise we had seen two wild saltwater crocs. One was a teenager and was ONLY 2 meters long, the other one was the Alpha male of the pack. His name is Scarface…..yes Scarface and he was one scary MF!! He is measured at 6 meters long and is massive. The biggest head ever! Apparently, when he took down the old Alpha male to become the new big croc in the river he celebrated by heading over to a local farm and taking down a cow. A whole cow! He apparently dragged the thing kicking all the way to the water and proceeded to do death rolls with the cow while massacring it. Yeek.  Scary story but also kinda interesting.

The rest of the day wasn’t nearly as exciting but I did get to see some pretty incredible things. The rain forest, my first one ever, was amazing and I was glad that got to see it. Well worth the money.

Tomorrow I head to Port Douglas a small town just north of Cairns. Much smaller but WAY more posh and looks to be a lot more fun. this is where I will do my Great Barrier Reef tour. I met some boys today who said they had done the tour a few days ago and could not stop talking about how incredible it was. I can’t wait! this has been on the top of my to-do’s here in Aussieland, so Im crazy pumped that I get to do it soon.

Anywho, that is all for now. I do have some better stories that deal with boys and drama and fun stuff like that but I am just about out of time on the Internet so will write more very very soon.
