Jeff Awaking to rain which did not last too long into the morning, we were soon able to go out and inspect the beach, and a sort of boom net we had seen last night. There was only a basic camp site at Tully so we carried on south, passing signs for Mission Beach where you might also see Cassowaries, and on down the Bruce Highway to Cardwell. ... At our chosen Cardwell campsite we were able to book places on the next morning's trip to Hinchbrook Island, and would be picked up at 8am at the camp site office. ... We decided to dine out and then have an early night.Jeff Awaking to rain which did not last too long into the morning, we were soon able to go out and inspect the beach, and a sort of boom net we had seen last night.

Sep 10, 2006 - Cairns / Mission Beach
Started the day by grubbing around my hostel trying to pack my bag in the dark with the help of a torch, headed to catch my first bus over here (greyhound) from Cairns to Mission Beach and Amanda came down to wave me off, she looked brilliant considering her 2 hours sleep whereas i looked awful, so thought we'd kill the half hour before my bus left by sneeking into the Cairns Shangri-La, and dipping our feet in their pool and having a game of table tennis! Amazing what walking around like you know where you're going does! Felt much better! Amanda told me that some poor girl got raped in the car park of her hostel last night.Started the day by grubbing around my hostel trying to pack my bag in the dark with the help of a torch, headed to catch my first bus over here (greyhound) from Cairns to Mission Beach and Amanda came down to wave me off, she looked brilliant considering her 2 hours sleep whereas i looked awful, so thought we'd kill the half hour before my bus left by sneeking into the Cairns Shangri-La, and dipping our feet in their pool and having a game of table tennis!
