together is was a good show. We did a short whip and fire twirling show after the rodeo finals
for the comity and some of the rodeo cowboys... we had some fun sharing stories, piggy back and
wheelbarrow racing in the main arena, coming out of the bull gates and camp fires later.
After a couple of late nights at Mareeba we moved onto a quiet spot on the Tinaroo
Lake/Dam, where Nath caught some Archerfish for dinner. The next day we drove through sections in the wet tropics of the tableland area were we came across Cathedral Figtree, which is a bit smaller than the Curtain Figtree further south.

Looks so sad... I didn't want to put this photo up but the request was there. poor fishy!!
Admiring the big fig tree!
Someone was artistic, we thought this was pretty good so it goes on blog! enjoy:-)Yarrabah
An Aboriginal township on the beach east of Cairns, with a few old ship wrecks not far from the shore, this was a nice spot to visit.
Babinda
Back again!! and must say the rain has not stopped from the last time we were here!! in fact it has been even worse than last time!! all the creeks and rivers are up and there is 2 inches of water under our tents... ok, maybe that's a little exaggerated, but it's pretty muddy and wet!! We would have been long gone already but committed ourselves to do a show in Cairns and Babinda is pretty much the closest free camp to Cairns:-/
Before the Monsoonal Rains
After the monsoonal rains had flattened our tarp and drenched our tents!!
