Arrived safe and sound in Cairns and need to get organised with trips in and around. Diving, rafting and maybe some sky diving are all on the agenda. Only 4 weeks to get the greatest hits of the East Coast done so not much time to waste.

Checked in to a pricey but cool hostel and loking forward to sleeping a real bed for a change. Looks very clean and modern and will make a nice change from playing couch commando at sammy's :)) There is however a nightclub in the hostel which goes on till 6am and am going to try to avoid that tonight. My body need sleep after the massivo amounts of boozing that went on in Melbourne. Loved the city and met some cool people but was ready to leave today.

However i did go and the see a well cool photography expo on Erath from Above. Has been touring for a few years and saw a few on londondinium last summer but this was like 70 pics. very cool to check out if u have some time and want cool backgrounds for your 'puter (http://www.yannarthusbertrand.com).

Rigtht off for a feed and then prob a reasonably early night. busy day tomorrow and might even go for a run as my diet of beerio's and excellent food has not been condusive to losing weight and don't want to be the fat kid on the block :)

Hope the weather gets better back in old blighty...it's 21:30 and 28 degrees here :)
