Day 14/15 - Kuranda
At the Cairns car rental company we met a very nice and open-minded Swiss woman who has lived in Australia for 30 years. Since it started to rain, we decided to do Kuranda a day...

And we continue north - about a 1.5 hour drive from Cairns to Mossman in the gorge/rainforest of the same name. You could also meet animals, for example Cassowary, a colorful, flightless, quite aggressive bird that contributes significantly to the preservation of the rainforest).
If you then - as you learned as a child - walk calmly and attentively through the forest, you might have a chance of seeing some animals. But we had taken into account the young adults and their children, who were stumbling through the forest chattering happily loudly in their flip-flops (sturdy shoes were recommended) and thus ruining any chance.
Nevertheless, the capuccino in the cafe at the end of the track was good and we had been walking for 2 hours.
