Last Two Nights in Northern Australia

We had a good time last night in Port Douglas. I cooked BBQ, and then we went to a local bar for a few beers and some music. We played 'Pokie' for the first time, even though these little rooms are in a corner of every establishment serving alcohol. Of course, we lost our money fairly quickly. This morning we woke up early to bring the rental car back to Cairns. We had an hour-long drive along the coast, and the scenery was beautiful. We spent the day hanging out in the sun along the Cairns lagoon again. And tonight we went back to Sushi Zipang to choose among the sushi floating along the conveyor belt. This was the first time we had eaten in the same restaurant twice since we started our trip, but it was just too good to pass up. Tomorrow we head to the airport at 5am for our 3-hour flight to Sydney and more of the big-city life.
