For the best way to find accommodation, look up in the Australian Yellow Pages, under Bed and Breakfast accommodation over the net. You can visit the World Heritage listed Daintree rainforest from here as well. I live about an hours drive away from Cairns, up in the mountains on the Atherton Tablelands, where it is cooler and dryer.

Hi Jo thank you so much for replying to my post. Sorry I haven't replied to you sooner.

Unfortunately I posted that entry over 2 years ago and you are the only one to reply to it. I did go with my mate and we had soooo much fun. I love Australia and I'm looking forward to the day I can afford to go back.

But I'll keep your reply for future use. Many thanks
