Cooktown II

Even though we had sore legs from that first trip, we decided to walk the other half, (the whole walk is called the scenic rim walk) the next day but we left the walk to Mount Cook out. This walk was leading us to the cemetery, through the wetlands to the esplanade 

and at the end the Fisherman's Wharf where we had our usual lunch,




looking at the fishermen catching one fish after the other.


 We nearly crawl back to the caravan park through the main street;

Cooktown is really a nice little town, it's just a bloody far drive!!

With blisters on our feet we sank into our seats and didn't get up again the first few hours.

On the way back, the same way as we came because that's the only way, we stopped at the black mountains for some pictures, very strange mountains;

and a little bit further we stopped again to make some pictures of the surrounding, 

then suddenly we heard a lot honking and there our Mission Beach neighbours, Jack and Cherise, came passed with their friends right behind them, till now that's the last we have seen them but you never know!!

We stopped again in Mount Molloy and continued our way next day.

We have been to a few spots which you know already so I have nothing to say about that, you remember the caravan park in Ravenshoe on the railway precinct? Well in the first place we found a traveler from Tassie back, who we had met at Fletchers Creek approximately 2 months ago......

(that's why I said; you never know with Jack and Cherise)

 

and we did a trip what we hadn't done the other day we were there, we've been to the Tully Gorge again, you know from the white water Rafters, but then from the other side and that was really beautiful too;

Of course we had to do a walk there;

You can see were the arrow points, that's where we were standing on the edge of the water!

Ok people that was it again, the next one will be Mount Surprise and I can tell you;

THAT WILL BE A SURPRISE SO, KEEP LOOKING!

Till then.......

Cheers!
