Endnu en aften sidder jeg på en terrasse i urskoven og hører på dens lyde, samt Stillehavets susen nede fra stranden. Klokken er 23:25 der er lige blevet lukket op for en VB (Victorian Bitter) og vi har haft en dejlig dag her på stedet, uden at vi har skullet køre. Vi sov alle lidt længere idag end vanlig, jer var en kort tur ved stranden, det var begyndende lavvande, stranden var ikke særlig bred. Hans Henrik var oppe da jeg kom tilbage, og mens han var i bad fik jeg endnu engang tømt Nikon’en for billeder. På den tid faldt [View Full Entry]

Today we’ve been, as you’ve probably have guessed by now, walking a lot. First we went up along the beach, which was amazing. We found golf ball sized nuts of some kind (Yeah, I’ve still got a bit of that swing left though I broke my walking staff ;) and a couple of seashells. Climbing the rocks we saw fish and crabs and stuff, but I decided to turn back as my footwear wasn’t excellent for climbing, my shoulders were turning slightly pink and I missed my boy back home :) Afterall, we’re privileged to have the web right by the [View Full Entry]

That’s where we’re staying for the next three nights. It’s absolutely lovely here! Little cabins in the middle of the rainforest, a pool, a bar, internet access (!!!) And the most beautiful sandy beach - that you cannot og swimming at because of the Box Jelly Fish, very deadly stingers :( But at least there’s the pool then :D We’ve decided to call it a quiet night tonight as we’ve been through Cairns and stuff on the way here, and it’s so nice here we’ll enjoy a bit of “pure relaxation” ;) Hope to get this updated while we&rsquo [View Full Entry]

Klokken er halv ni aften, jeg sidder på altanen til en lille hytte tilhørende Cape Tribulation Beach House, det ligger midt i en tropisk regnskov, ca. en halv kilometer fra den dejligste “bounty”-strand. Der er ingen menneskelige lyde - nu da de i hytten overfor har slukket for aircondition-anlægget - men ellers er er lyde nok af cikader og andet, foruden en masse puslen og nuslen i skovbunden. Gekkoerne, hvis kaldesignal vi snart kender, høres af og til og der suser en let brise gennem de høje træer. Man kan svagt høre Stillehavets bølger nede fra stranden. Det er stort set [View Full Entry]

You step out of an airconditioned car into a wall of hot humid air, the sun is burning in a clear blue sky and you’re in a parkinglot in the middle of the rainforest. You look around and follow the dusty road towards the sound of running water. Reaching a bridge you proceed down the narrow staircase beside it leaving the dust and the worst of the heat behind. As you reach the end of the stairs you see a small rockpool fed by the slowing waters from a rushing fall further upstream. Somebody’s splashing around in the water, others are [View Full Entry]

Vi kom afsted fra Ayr ved halv ti-tiden, jeg var tidligt oppe, kunne ikke rigtigt sove for varmen. Fik så til gengæld set et par meget flotte Rainbow Bee-eater; inden jeg vendte tilbage til motellet var Hans Henrik stået op. Der lå en masse aske på bilen fra de sukkerrørsmarkbrande vi så i aftes. Solfuglene var meget aktive i de store Hibiscus’er og Allamanda’er. Vi snakkede om at vi ville satse på at nå til Cardwell idag, og så tage det sidste hug i morgen. Det har været en meget smuk køretur idag, gennem opdyrket land det meste af tilde, primært [View Full Entry]

Today we left Airlie Beach behind having finally uploaded again. After half a day of driving with stops at particularly beautiful places we’ve settled down in Ayr for the night. Nice place. I’ve just kinda watched Batman Begins, but the videotape was so worn the upper half of the picture kept wabling and shifting and stuff. It didn’t mix up the story much so I saw it all, but if they’re still showing it on the plane when we’re flying home, I think I’ll be seeing it once more, just to get all the faces right ;) Now goodnight to you [View Full Entry]

Vi er nu godt 500 km syd for Cairns, og kan - hvis vi vil - nå derop på en dag, men det vil vi ikke, når vi frem i løbet af weekenden er det fint. Hans Henrik har en hel del vi skal se på vejen. Det er lidt underligt at vi nu er så tæt på, det er helt vild så hurtigt tiden er gået, i morgen er der 14 dage til vi skal flyve hjem fra Darwin. En forholdsvis god nat søvn, der dog blev afbrudt adskillige gange af varmen, sluttede for mit vedkommende ved 6-tiden. Jeg stod [View Full Entry]
