Monday 1st May

Our next stop was Mission beach - or south Mission Beach to be more precise. We had a lazy day walking along the beach, reading by the pool and learning about cassowaries. As we drove about, the effects of Cyclone Larry were still quite evident. There were trees pushed to the side of the road, the rainforest was a mess and many older houses had tarpaulins on their rooves. It is warm and wet up here - more overcast than in the Whitsundays.
