Sunny start and usual 6am waking. Breakfast stuff nicely timed to run out this morning and did.
Walked to the beach where there were loads of people swimming and surfing despite being 8am. Continued along the boardwalk round the headland, going as far as time allowed.
On the road back to Brisbane at 10 and an easy 150 km drive to the airport. Delightfully easy drop-off for the car and quickly into check-in and fond farewells to T & R.
Watched the film Philomena on the way, nice comfy sort of film when the crappy headphones and engine noise allowed us to hear what was going on.
Yet another laid-back attendant at the car hire place and on the road again, this time in a Kia Rio.
About an hour to Port Douglas, where the motel was easy to find and well equipped. Arranged tomorrow's trip to Karunda and set off for the Coles supermarket to stock up on provisions. Tasty ready-meal to staunch the appetite then early to bed.
Very warm and close, but overcast with promise of force 1 cyclone coming soon.
