Above: Our accommodation at Paradise Palms.
This turned out to be a lazy day. We didn’t feel obliged to be sucked into any of the other tourist traps around Cairns. The warm weather was enough reason for coming over! As it turned out, it rained … but the temperature was still nice.
Throughout our stay, this question kept popping into our conversations. “Is xxxxx Kiwi or is it Ozzie?” xxxxx refers to very common Kiwi things, names and brands (or so we thought).
There’s Mitre 10 and Bunnings at the shopping centre, the cabbage tree by the motorway, the fern in the forest … all the things that seem really Kiwi. You really start to wonder what is Kiwi and what is Ozzie.
