My friend Greg is a Cairns resident and offered to drive me around and see some of the city. Free tour of Cairns? Yes, please.
When he picked me up at my hostel that morning I was not expecting our mode of transportation to be a bright yellow Ford with a "GANGLES" license plate. And yet it was quite enjoyable driving to the sites in style. Greg took me to Kuranda, a village famous for its scenic railway and alternative, hippie lifestyle, some great lookouts of Cairns CBD, Crystal Cascade, and the famous Barron Falls.
