August 12th, 2006 claire_warren

Today I left Butte (which is pronounced Bewt, not Butt – which I prefer!) and headed south east to Yellowstone NP. The scenery was slightly more interesting than yesterday thank goodness and I followed some mountains south for a while which were really pretty.

Finally here…

We stepped out of the plan at the airport in Cairns and were immediately assaulted by the oppressive heat of the tropics. Giant palm trees and ferns greeted us cheerfully, and the lush mountians made me feel like I had walked into Jurassic Park itself. The next day we went snorkeling on the Great Barrier  Read More »
