CAIRNS DAY 3 - Kotara & Skyrail!

Day three we travelled to some railway that took us up the mountains. The view was amazing, the train was supercool and really vintage. They built the railway 100 years ago and over 9 people died creating it, crazy stuff. We reached a small town called Kotara where we waited before we boarded the "skyrail". The town was pretty much filled with tourists, gypsy markets and places that sold those surfy bracelets. Dad found some little alley way that led to an opshop, fair stoked, got some denim shirts but they aren't that good haha, nothing major. It eventually came time that we board the skyrail, One of the most spectacular things i have ever done. Picture yourself hovering 40 feet above a rainforest that expands as far as the eye can see in all directions. You can see birds nests, animals, rivers and if you are lucky you might see a crocodile. We then reached the end and waited for a bus for an hour and a half, it was horrible, everything else was perfect, all in all a good day!
