Dear Reader,

Here in the Whitsunday Islands (Hayman Island to be exact) the internet rocks (which is not always a good thing) but for the sake of this blog it is amazing.  We have just been in the oldest, living rainforest in the world- The Daintree.  We arrived a day before and enjoyed a fabulous afternoon at a local swimming hole a couple of miles up a rainforest trail.

Grant and Neil met us in Auckland for our 5 hour trip to Cairns (the fellas were troopers as they travelled 19.5 hours in total).  Here is how we helped Squeak and Big G stave off some massive jet lag.
