Palm Cove

4 days at Palm Cove (North of Cairns): approaching Christmas time... 32 degres C. at 09.00 am. Programme: take the heat, discover the bottle shops, the coral reef (and the fact that Nami is seasick) and the Queensland rythm. 4 days of great seafood, barbecue. And no need for a watch. Stayed at the Melaleuca Resort ( http://www.melaleucaresort.com.au/ )

Welcome to the Palm Cove story... We enjoyed some beaches, our swimming pool, the sunset and... the pure night sky.
