Sydney Harbour and Cairns...

Hi Everyone,I hope everyones ok!!!We've arrived in Cairns! Yey!Yesterday evening when we headed to the sky bar but they didn't havespace... we keep losing track of what night it is! lol!Instead we headed for Sydney harbour and had dinner there. The food couldhave been better (but not really bad by any means!) but the location wasspectacular so that def made up for it!!! We then had an ice cream afterand got the bus back to the hostel. I then had a long chat with Mummy(which was LOVELY!!!).Today we got up early, packed and checked out of Wake Up! and headed forthe airport. I was not in a good way with the flying (lets just put itlike that!), I don't think Rob got more than two words out of me or asmile until we landed in Cairns!The flight however was not bad at all! I do like the boeing 737 800edsthey seem nicer than the airbuses. They gave us lunch (which I didn't eatcause I felt too sick) and drinks etc. I saw both pilots as they both cameout for seperate breaks (which is very comforting!). I also watchedElizabeth the golden age! We got ready for landing early because they wereworried about turbulance, however it turned out that it really wasn't thatbad at all! That was the best landing so far! lol! As we were decendinginto Cairns it was BEAUTIFUL! You could see Rainforest on one side and thesea on the other.The hostel picked us up from the airport. The hostel seems really reallycute! We have an ensuite room! Which is awesome! We've actually unpackedthis time, which is really nice, it makes you immediately feel moresettled! We have chosen some tours already... we're going to go scubadiving, into the rainforest (and above it in a sky rail) and lots of otherstuff that includes swimming in a volcanic crater and sliding downwaterfalls!!! I'm soooooo excited!Anyways, we're going to head into town now for dinner! Ow I forgot, itsraining here but was soooo humid when we arrived it was a bit of a relief!Hope everyones ok!Lots of Love,Sarah xxx
