Port Douglas Holiday - Nick

Port Douglas Holiday.

As Nick is working for the Sea Temple resort, in Port Douglas, we can get insanely cheap stays, and with frequent flyer flights (book early) - this was an opportunity we could not miss.

So after a hectic week (nearing end of financial year rush) we had a wonderful meal with the Verrans and met Jim and Pixie (although Jim and I agreed gravy would have been nice) we got on the plane and took off at 11pm. The flight was well uneventful - and a flight... Arrived at 5:30am




This is the bus that took us on a fairly extreme trip to Nicks House - no bus stop - they just drop you off at the house









Shows the sun coming up on the drive













A lot of Sugar Cane - must be close for harvesting as we think it gave Jen fairly serious hay fever











We got dropped off at Nicks House. Then went into town by taxi - and had an awesome breakfast and possibly the best coffee ever at Re-hab.









Our room with a view











Another angle.
The first day was a bit of a blur as Jen and I did not sleep a great deal on Friday night.

The evening meal was at the restaurant and Jen had an Atlantic Salmon - that was another "best ever".








A green ant!














No sooner had we arrived in the room and the fridge was being cleaned out, and Jens purse was lighter!

Slept like the dead.
