Right before we landed in Cairns.
The Cairns airport. Finally, we enter tropical paradise!
The view from Palm Cove, the beach we're staying near.
Is this not stunning?

Stunning!
Our catamaran, the aristocat. There were about 30 people on board for our day trip out the reef.
Open waters and a tiny sailboat.
Yup, we're in the Great Barrier Reef.
George on the boat.
Krissy in her "stinger" suit. There are stinging jellyfish in the water (thank God I didn't see any) but the suit is quite comfy and offers fabulous sun protection as well.
After 3 hours of snorkeling, everyone relaxed at the sun deck.
Off the diving deck on the back of the boat.
Our swimming pool at our resort we're staying at in Palm Cove.
