Far North Queensland, Part 2

Moving ahead: day 3 in Kuranda


Flecker Botanical Gardens.
Set deep within the tropical gardens is this delightful café. Serves a killer eggs benedict.


Barron Falls.
The area is really full of surprises. Who would've thought a short walk through the dense tropical forest would suddenly explode into a rocky gorge complete with a waterfall? Pity about the lack of water though.


Army Duck.
Very touristy, I know, but it is a certainly a unique way to see the rainforest by means of an amphibious vehicle from WWII, dubbed the 'army duck'.


Navy Duck?
This particular bird is renowned for its fishing prowess.
