Still in Cairns, but the end is in sight.

With Rocky laid up at the dealers awaiting a full diagnosis, we got stuck into rediscovering Cairns.  Cairns is a tropical city that relies heavily on the tourist dollar.  That also means that for people like us, there is plenty to see and do.  

We were also extremely fortunate to be holed up in my brother's house - so we were also rediscovering the joys of living in a house. The simple things like running hot water, a full kitchen and comfortable couches were certainly appreciated.  That said we also were doing chores like sweeping the floors and cleaning the bathrooms that we hadn't done for a long time...  there are two sides to every coin.

The boy's continued their routine of cooking dinner for us on Saturday night - necessitating a visit to the famous Rusty's Markets for the fresh food supplies.  The boys did a pretty good job, not just with the shopping, but also the cooking too!
