Leaving Daintree

Hello.....yes catching up with this Netflix show most evenings

We left Daintree Village to go to next place and called in at another croc cruise and snapped this 😉😉


Selfie on another boat and yesterday was cool and raining 😂😂

A few on board keen to see something through the rain


We saw this little Salt water croc and Paul used my camera

Cute at a distance

January there were floods and reached up metres

We found this tree snake

Paul got a pic including its head

The ferry we went on the other day leaves from over there

After the floods the guide said a lot of sand was washed away and river is the lowest he has seen in 34yrs......he also said a farmer had 150+ cattle washed away.....

The ferry on the other side loaded with cars

We had fun and then headed off in the rain lol

Cool enough for me to do a bit of crochet in the car

We arrived in Atherton and checked a few van parks.....Decided on a RV friendly spot out of town near another place called Tolga $5 donation a night. War memorial site nearby

We then checked out Lake Tinaroo

And Tinaroo Falls Dam

Water was spraying out

Very noisy lol

Back at the park with many others 

Us......
Woody was feeling chilly so wore his beanie

And this morning got a pic of a Yacht that stayed the night.....fun place to sleep.
Well will have a rest from posting maybe.....thanks again for visiting xoxo

Daintree and Crocodiles

Yes us again.....keeping up with trip posting.....so Yesterday got on the road to Daintree More info and some nice sea alongside

Sent this pic to my boy Rex


Nice trip to enjoy

Now based here for 2 nights 

Yep Crocs

Nice unpowered setup near river 

Neat little village with Pub too


Looking over to Daintree River which has many floods....
The average annual rainfall in the Daintree rainforest is approximately 2000mm (79in) per year. Some areas have even recorded up to 9000mm (345in) in a single year. The wet seasons is between December and March. Over 60% of the rain falls during this wet season.

So plenty of rain 

We booked a River trip 

Woody came along too

Cruise Selfie 

This Croc was just across the River opposite where we are staying

Nice going along

Wildlife/birds of Daintree   think these are white Egrets


So beautiful here and hot lol

This was a female Crocodile

And check this male one out.....HUGE

Close enough I reckon

Log up in tree is where flood level has been.....

A lovely blue Kingfisher I got with me zoom camera


This tree area in Vanpark shows how high water has been and damage done 
Well that is it for another yesterday.....
