Day 5

Day 5: today is such an early day!! We woke up at 315am (i.e. Sg
115am!). I havnt even reached home back in sg. Haha. We are goin to
take hot air balloon this morning, after which sky rail (which is
cable car in sg context) and a train ride back to cairns city.
Hot air balloon is a different concept from what we have in sg. They
actually move from place to place. But that is not is the onli
difference. We were 'trapped' in a basket container and movements and
space are restricted. Then the person next to me is pple from my 'fav'
country!! Y do I have to bump into them even here?! I was ok with them
initially till one of them squeezing to our side to take pic for the
other and keep knocking into me!! Goddamn it! Don't they have eyes or
feelings that they bumped into others?! I was so pissed that I told
them off. Rest of the flight was quite pleasant with nice view, then
followed by nice breakfast.
The skyride up to Kuranda was ok too, however, the markets at Kuranda
was very boring. Not much selection or it's at super high prices, all
out to chop Roberts. End up we didn't even buy anything. The train
ride back to cairns city was kinda boring except for a few areas.
Basically it makes up our whole journey and it ended at only 345pm.
Since the railway station is near to shopping mall, decided to go to
the supermarket to grab more water and other stuff.
Went back to the hotel to grab the car then we r on our way to Mission
Beach, a place abt 2 hrs from cairns city. However, it was kinda
disappointing when I reached. Very backpacker style, to the extent
they dun even provide towels in rooms. So decided not to stay here for
another nite and will drive back to cairns city aft the river rafting
tmr. Maybe tired but not going to stay here any longer than I should.
Looking for other place to suntan on our last day. Hee. No snorkelling
but still should tan a bit rite? Hee.
