It's well worth it. We did either a low isles day or outer reef, since your girls are little they may prefer the low isles, water is calm, you hang out on an atoll all day or the catamaran, glass bottom boats. The outer reef can get rough and you can only be in the water or on the boat.
Yikes you got close to wild crocs....I just figured you were at the croc farm, do they still have that huge croc figure in front. And yes I know where you followed the Daintree.
Hey I even did the nerada tea plantation, might have caught a glimpse of a casawary. I just thought Port Douglas was so cool, so old and historical. It was like movies I had seen about Australia.
So how was the racing? I never had time to get to any racing venues when I was there or in New Zealand, was in Melbourne during the Cup but alas not able to go, had to do the fairy penguins and the koala park....but I did get to meet some long lost cousins.
