New Years in Cairns, Australia



For New Year's Eve Scott actually gave everyone a "Day Off" (ha!).  We had a quiet day: went to church, took a quick walk through the adjacent Botanical Gardens, had a gourmet lunch and even got a nap in ("Nap at home!").  We caught a peek of the fireworks...at 9pm.  We left the midnight festivities to the real party animals.

No ties here...and lots of flip flops!

McDonald's can be a cultural experience too...

Beets on a hamburger


Gravy Fries...How can we NOT have these in the U.S.?????!







The picture doesn't do it justice..it was like something from the movie South Pacific...moonlight on the waves with a gentle warm breeze.

Fireworks...sorry, photo fail


On January 1 it was off to Sydney:
