Waterfalls....waterfalls and more waterfalls...

Waterfalls…

We have been to quite a few waterfalls in our travels so far, each one pretty cool and unique.

On our way to Cairns we stopped at

Josephine Falls


We didnt think you could swim in the falls so we didnt bring our swimmers...bummer... so we watched a big group of backpackers have a great time...we seem to have lots of photos of nice female backpackers bums..mmm ....George???


The lovely stairway back to the really rough track...

 The Golden Hole – a really nice little swimming hole (with great big CROC signs all around it) we were on a mission so we didn’t have a dip! It was also a recreational area, which sort of looked like a zen garden…a bit strange in the middle of nowhere but somewhere nice to have a party or group gathering, if you don’t mind travelling a 100kms or so in the middle of nowhere??




These were both stemming from Mt Bartle Frere the tallest mountain peak in QLD.

whoops...for some reason this one wont rotate ;-/

The Boulders falls were near Babinda, really nice long walk beside a pretty awesome waterway with rock pool, pretty cool big rocks, and waterfalls, looked like prime platypus territory, so I spent quite some time searching for them…only to find…nothing! Oh well… next time my little platys..next time. You can swim if you dont mind the crocs in the first part of the river but then it gets really really swift and there were lots and lots of warnings and a plaque in memory of a tourist who didnt heed the signs...or so it says?? Oh and we found out you can camp for free at the Boulders which would have been nice but we kept on heading up to Cairns
perfect platypus territory...im sure they were in there!


not much water in there at the moment but it looked like it would be awesome in the wet!

The forest was so thick on the track to the waterfalls that George did his best Gorillas in the Mist impersonation!

Ok so we are getting pretty obsessed by paroramic....oh and selective colour..but you will see those later on ;-)


Off to Cairns…
