    Found this nearby, wish my travel agent had been aware. Not really, we like nice, but we are not included to spend 5k per night, although we only walk this earth once.

    Really very nice not crowded, weather has been overcast, rain yesterday but clearing. Just beautiful. At Sumner Beach now. Had a private tour of downtown plus gardens yesterday. And loved the Air Force Museum of New Zealand was spectacular. And what a restoration shop, lighting was incredible. It rotated from dusk to dawn every five minutes.

    Another 'if it's possible' for Cairns - take the historic Kuranda Railway train up to Kuranda , the waterfalls at the top should be spectacular at present. Come back down via the cable car (spectacular view outover the Coral Sea and you can do some short rainforest walks at stops along the way).

    Back when Chloe was living in Cairns in 2018 we would regularly drive to Kuranda to check out the falls and have a bite at a place there that does the most delicious crepes I’ve had in my life.

    Didn’t seem like there was much wrong with the place then, although like everywhere in FNQ quite touristy.
