Crikey! - paradise has cheap accomodation...

I can’t believe how many miles we covered!! It’s unseemly and unnatural!

First stop, after leaving Brisbane was always going to be Australia Zoo Home of the Crocodile Hunter – (it appears he’s not home very often). Anyway Crocs galore and other stuff.

The Glass House mountains: named by Captain Cook (as was everything else in Australia) they look like ... Glasshouses, whatever they are. Believed by the Aborigines to be a family of mountain spirits.

Next stop, The Capricorn Caves and their underground Cathedral. Very dark, lots of bats (in some places the guano is 18m deep – yum!)
