Having a break...
The roads are flooded up ahead...Still heading north and its getting hotter by the day.
News is coming through that they are having dreadful floods up north.
31 inches of rain in two days! We'd met other travellers, who had travelled from Cairns.
And they were saying that the roads are so bad that they've had to delay travelling for a few days..
What to do???? That's it lets hold up in some luxury for a few days, until the floods clear.
Found a great motel in Mirriam Vale only $75 a night with
free internet! (Internet in Australia can cost up to $8 an hour) Two days later..... We'd managed to catch up with family and a few of our blogs.
And now we feel refreshed and ready to hit the road again, taking us further north......
The beaches were empty!!! Due to stingers, crocodiles and sharks.
We were a bit disappointed to find that we could no longer have a dip in the sea to cool down.
It seems the further north we go the worse it gets, a stinger suit is a must in these areas -
But we have enough to carry without buying one of those.........
