Port Douglas holidays: Days 5 and 6

Saturday 6 June

Day five

We went to explore








We also had an afternoon walk along the beach.

Sunday 7 June

Day six

We went to the market after breakfast.


We listened to music 


We watched the cruise going to the Outer Reef
and were very glad we were not on it.
The sea was very rough and the boat moving up and down a lot.


You could buy some cane juice and do the
crushing yourself

The market was very interesting but we did not
buy anything.

I spent the rest of the day by the pool.
Claude went and watch a bit of the marathon
around the place: biking, swimming, canoeing, running.

Port Douglas Day three

Thursday 4 June 2015

Our 50 th Anniversary

We went on a river cruise aboard a 
make believe paddle boat.



Getting aboard, we got a glass of champagne 




our first crocodile





We passed in front of the
Tin Shed
Where we will be having dinner tonight



Back at the resort to relax by the pool.









The Tin Shed is a pub who serve very good food.
But to get a table you have to be early.
And have a drink watching the sun set.




Claude is very proud of himself.
He was on the look out to see when you could put in 
your order and got number 1
By then we had a very good table.


We saw the Lady Douglas come home from her sunset cruise
