First day in Cairns Australia

The good news is we made it safely after 30+ hours of flying and waiting in Airports. The bad news is that Qantas lost our luggage. the airline gave us $200 for some clothes. We went to a Target and got a few essentials. Tomorrow we will be on the Great Barrier Reef diving for 4 days, so you won't get another blog until after then. Hopefully our clothes arrive by then. All for the first day. Mike

Well its Great that you made it there. A Bummer that the bags didn't but they should show up soon. Wow scuba diving thats got to be lots of fun. I might have a hard time getting in one of those suits.

You don't need clothes while "hang'in" out at the Barrier Reef.
How's the weather and chow?
Same-o, same-o stateside.

HOPE YOUR RIDE TO THE BARRIER REEF WAS A SMOOTH ONE. BEING ON A CATAMARAN WITH A BUNCH OF SEASICK TRAVELERS ISN'T WHERE YOU WANT TO BE..... HOPE YOU GOT A SUPER LOOK AT THE COLORFUL FISHIES AND CORAL. DID YOU DO THE RAINFOREST CABLE RIDE?? ON YOUR WAY SOUTH DON'T PASS UP THE BUNDABURG RUM FACTORY......YUMMY SAMPLES.

uI'm surprised that you didn't go running around without clothes, Cleave and French! Glad you got your bags from the evil airlines.

Kauai was wonderful!

Big hugs,
