CAIRNS DAY TWO! WHITE WATER RAFTING!

Day Two! Me and Matty wake up at six thirty and get ready for one of the best days of our lives. We had a two hour bus trip through tropical north Queensland l to a small town south of cairns called Tully. Tully is quite a depressing town. The cyclone ripped all the houses and local stores apart. It has one school, where the children supposedly learn to count to one million by age 12. then they are sent out to the sugar cane farms to work. Everyone in Tully is also related.. apparently. I didn't get any photo's of Tully because i wasn't to keen on taking my camera down the rapids, or leaving it on the bus. We finally reached the rapids and were put in a group of six with a german couple and two other ladies that were pretty rad! The river was amazing, i highly recommend doing the tour we did. Mostly grade 1-4. We were so well looked after and it was super safe as dangerous as it may look. The mountain sides, waterfalls and scenery were also quite spectacular until we neered tully and saw the effects of cyclone Yatzi. Crocodiles had also been spotted in parts of the river we passed through, but they didnt eat me. Thankfully. Caio
