The pic in question is the sight that confronted us in the bar area of the White Cockatoo in Mossman (a quiet resort on the way to Cape Trib) - essentially the hotel's glory coverage from recent years.... In short, a very nice, rainforest set b&b that in winters months is fine for the family but doubles as a nudist colony/swingers retreat (thankfully we were out of season!)
We have spent the last four days on a road trip to Cape Tribulation. Recent adventures include:
- A meat feast cooked by James on a real Australian Barbie
- Crocodille spotting down the Daintree river (although James was dissapointed we only saw one)
- Lots of beach action (windy but good for kite sailing)
- Walking the Mossman Gorge (deep rainforest area just off the north east coast)
- Exploring the creeks and avoiding Crocodiles (warning signs were scary but quite exciting)
- Avoiding Cassawaries (large turkey creatures that charge at the sight of food and are more common than we initially thought)
- 1 large black Feral pig (in the Mossman rainforest - it snorted, we shat our pants)
- 1 large but not deadly spider (in the girls toilet but big enough to be considered a threat)
- 1 flying fox (fruit eating - James fed him some apple)
- 1 Cane toad ( it jumped out under the torchlight whilst we trecked accross the campsite)

ahhh it all brings back sweet sweet memories reading this. Esp about Mossman Gorge! If you are heading back to Cairns, go to Jonno's pub - they do Cane toad racing (not cruel) as well as good live music. Cheers chaps - Finn
