Cairns, QLD
29 August 2004

This is our last day in Queensland except for one upcoming night in Brisbane. I really have a lot to write, and almost no time to write it, so will stick to e-bites. Went on a rainforest tour yesterday. Saw LOTS of platypus in a river pool. Dom, if you're out there, I was thinking of you. About to go for another rainforest drive.

Not quite sure how to describe Cairns. Parts of it remind me of Nashua, New Hampshire with palm trees. Other parts are indescribable in an urban tropical way. Must go back to hotel and meet Rick. Must sleep someday ...
