Australia September 1998 - Part five

Other tourists seem amused by the bird on Gloria's hat.

Ron licking the bottom of a green ant. They release
ascorbic acid, which tastes like lemon juice.

Note the joey on the right - tight fit in some of those pouches.

We rented a bike for a day. (Yes, helmets were required).

Clint, a sugar cane farmer, offered us refuge from the rain.
We spent about an hour learning about sugar cane. (You can see
he rides, too - so he understood about getting caught in the rain).

In the rainforest - Mossman Gorge. This bridge had a limit
of 17 people - a little scary.

One of our best meals. This restaurant was built like a tree-house with
6 platforms. Each had about 8 tables and its own chef during peak use.
It's part of the Radisson Treetops Resorts. We stayed across the street
at the Radisson Reef.
