Hello from Cairns!

We arrived in Brisbane yesterday, about 6:30am, and managed to catch a flight at 9:45 to Cairns. It was hot and sunny when we arrived about midday. we phoned around, and booked into a hostel, and caught the bus to it. Its a bit like a prison cell, but its got some advantages, like a free meal voucher for the bar next door which is handy! yesterday we spent thw afternoon just lying out in the sun, and in the eveing, we took advantage of happy hour! they sell the beer in jugs here, and mark got through 3. i stuck to the wine, until i realised that say sold strongbow, and so got on that! we ended up in a coyote bar until aboutn 3 in the morning. there was also a band playing, and we were jumping around and going crazy at the front. all in all a good night! Today we didnt wake until 3:30 in the afternoon, and we just rolled out of bed, and onto the beach. a couple of hours later, we had our evening meal. we're blaming it on being tired from Asia and jet lag...
