Cairns

Got to Cairns on Thursday, after a quick look at the waterfront park lands we found another free camp at Trinity Park Beach, amazing spot lined with tall coconuts and big paperbarks, heaps of room even though we arrived late. No facilities, but a beautiful little beach, no crocs or stingers when we were there anyway. Checked out the night markets on Friday night in Cairns, I will have to look into making my own crocodile belt as I can't afford $220 for one. Picked up a nice kangaroo leather hat to keep the sun off.

Had to sort out a few things in Cairns and ended up staying till Monday to get it all done.

1/5 new Bridge stone 674 mud terrain tyres, 265 75 16. Awesome tyres
2/Replaced all my dual battery fuses with auto reset 12v breakers after a flat battery problem.
3/Repacking the Mitsy Challenger to fit all our months worth of food and filling up the fuel tank 170litres worth.
Oh and a couple bottles of fermented grape juice, and aged fermented malted & distilled barley.

Met some good people who have similar plans and we will try travel together, always good to have another vehicle in uncharted territory. And there both Mitsy's .

Finally Monday arvo we are ready to leave the northern-est city in Queensland and make for the northern most tip.
