Distance:- 0 Km
Distance to Date:- 4033.5 Km
Start:- Grahame & Mundi - Cairns
Finish:- Grahame & Mundi - Cairns
Comment:- Today we were up by 7.30am and had planned to go on a cruise to Green Island. We were given some advice that it may not be a good day to go as the cloud cover was fairly heavy.

Mundi then suggested we drive up to Copperlode Falls Dam. It was a nice 10km drive up to the dam where we had a wander around before descending the hill and onto the Botanical Gardens where we had lunch. A stroll through the gardens revealed some amazing plants and trees.

It was back to the house to freshen up before we went back into town for some last minute purchases then to High Tea at the training restaurant.

We arrived at the Tropics Training Restaurant where we were welcomed and shown to our seats. A nice array of savouries, sandwiches, cakes and pastries was presented along with a tea of our choice. A most enjoyable time was had. Not quite up to the standard of the High Tea Evon and I enjoyed at the Ritz in London.

It was then back home for a relaxing evening.
