You will quickly be able o ell that i stopped blog writing here as i went into “organising my life” mode to see how I could get over to Western Australia. After much phoning and internet searches the plan is as follows: Fly Cairns to Darwin (NT). Northern Territory will accept me as long as i have not been to any hotspots -and I had not. Then I can fly to Perth (Western Australia) from a very low risk state (NT) and be allowed to enter and not have to quarantine. Plan made, ticket refunded, new ticket purchased.
We did a day of exploring around Cairns – which was good and also met up with Waldo (Lara’s brother) and his family for dinner. By fluke, the three unvaccinated young ones also managed to get our Pfizer shots as a clinic was running out of people to stab and so we got in :).
The highlight was probably Barron Falls and the great canopy walk that is there (free). We also did a short stop in Kuranda Village as well- where I really liked the metalwork as pr the photos.
