Kurranda

In the morning I arrived in Cairns. Taehn, she is the nice girl who will host me for the next two nights, was so kind and picked me up.
So what should I do today? Definitly, I have to make a day off from the ocean. I had decided to go to the rain forrest (Baron falls national park) north of Cairns and took the skyrail (cabel car) to Kurranda. By the way, the skyrail is the most expensive way to get to get there :-), but anyway, to "fly" over the forrest is not too bad.
In Kurranda I went to a kind of zoo... Jea, and I touched a Koala!
Kurranda is a really nice tourist trap. They mixed in this small town the ideals of the rainforrest, lots of aboriginal culture, and of course, hippy livestyle. Intresting and, who would expact that, you can buy lots of souveniers :-)
