I was very sad to leave Sydney and my very first flat but it was made better by the fact I was heading off to paradise. We arrived in Cairns so excited. The weather was so hot and the views were stunning! We managed to arrange a bus to take us to Bay Villas resort in Port Douglas. Beware the young man is not very friendly at the desk of the tour bus. Anyway, it was an hour in the bus and the scenery along the way was really pretty, lots of golden beaches and parmtrees.
Our apartment was right next to the pool. It was very spacious and clean. Overall we couldnt have asked for better accomodation. The lady on reception was kind. She told us all about the area and even gave us a map. Couldn't help thinking we were being patronised though! We have met a few people on our journey who I am sure think we are idiots when it comes to finding our own way around. But we have managed perfectly fine!
Anyway, Port Douglas was very relaxing. We lazed about the pool for most of the week, we went for nice walks down to the beach in the evening. We cooked nice food and made our way through two tubs of Nutella!
Toward the end of the week we decided to go diving on the barrier reef. We went with the tour company Poseidon. The crew were very nice. Food could have been better but overall we had a great day and got some brilliant snaps! Would highly recommend going diving on the barrier reef!
