Mouralyan Harbour to Cairns via Fitzroy and Green Island

The weather is still crap but it's time to move on, we stick our nose out of the harbour to see how the sea is and surprisingly it's not too bad so off we go. Fitzroy Island is some 30 miles away and Tess is still a bit fragile so post haste is on the cards, after 5 hours of motor sailing we...

Schoene Falls, viele Menschen

Nach der Touristenfreien Gibb River Road und dem relativ leeren Kakadu NP sind wir dann in den vollgestopften Litchfield NP gefahren. Das war so scheisse dass wir kaum Fotos genmacht haben.

beherrscht von krokodilen

Hier gings dann richtig los mit den Saltwater Crocodiles. Man darf hier in keinem Wasserkoerper schwimmen weil man nie wissen kann ob da Crocs drin sind oder nicht. In der Wet-Season wird der ganze Bereich naemlich ueberflutet und die Fetten Krokodile verteilen sich durch den ganzen...
