Rainforest Tour (near Cairns)



Now for the rainforest tour.  We got up and made our way with Uncle Brian's tour.  The bus pulled up and off we went, meeting "cousin" Brad and the bus passengers.  We visited some rainforests, swam in a volcano, and had a swim through a very powerful waterfall.  I couldn't believe how powerful it was as I swam behind it and tried to follow

Erik through it.  I coudln't see through all the spray and the deafening noise of the falls made.  So, I gripped what rock I could find to stand up and figure out what to do next.  Erik swam back and pushed me through the waterfall and you know what...it was amazing!  Just an FYI, Herbal Essence commercial was filmed here ladies!!


Another huge waterfall

Another WATERFALL!!!!!!!!!!!!!

On the way back we stopped by an overflowing river, allowing people to bravely pop in with the scare of crocks possibly lingering.  We ended the day singing on the bus to old 80's and 90's tunes and stopping on the side of the road for a case of beers. Goodbye Carins! Oh and trust me, Erik was all about the singing and dancing :)  Could you imagine anything less?



Crocodile filled river...."Shall I get in?"


The dense rainforest, hope we don't get lost with all the spiders

YIIIPPPPEEEE, another one!?
