Day 8 - Cairns, Queensland

Friday, May 27, 2011
Cairns, Queensland, Australia
Today visited Kuranda by Skyrail with a beautiful clear day, unfortunately unable to go by the historic rail as tracks were being maintained. Stopped off at Red Peak and Barron Falls pitstops on the way up to top. We cruised around shops and markets where we seen candy being made from beginning to end by Ross and Judy - fascinating how they get happy faces within the candy.

Visited the Butterfly Santuary where Jayde was able to try and catch them on a leaf and found out how to tell the difference between a moth and a butterfly (moths sit with their wings open where butterflies sit with wings together) .

We lunched at the Karunda pub, not bad before travelling back down the Skyrail. Easy night before our short couple of hours travel to Port Douglas.
