Klaudz in the Jungle

From Cairns I went on a tour up to the Daintree Nationalpark which is a beautiful rainforrest. it was amazing!! I stayed for one night in a hostel resort in the jungle and was just 2 minutes away from one of the most beautiful beaches I ve ever seen in my life!! On the way up there we went on a boat cruise and even saw a crocdile... well.. after eating croc it was also very interesting to see them actually alive ;) in cape tribulation I was hanging out with 2 swedish girls. the funny thing was that they had spent the last 2 winter seasons in austria. they were working in a hostel in bad gastein. believe it or not... I know the manager of their hostel.. (die welt ist ein dorf). we had a couple of beers in the jungle bar and talked to some crazy hippy people. it was a lot of fun.. they were actually living up there in the rainforrest.. we also heard some crazy stories about hippies living up in cape tribulation since the 50s. it was very interesting. the next day i went on a sea kayaking trip around the cape.. it was fantastic.. since its the rainy season up there at the moment the sea level was very high and we could even paddle through the trees in the middle of the rainforrest.. it was great. stew , our kayak guide was good fun and we had fresh coconuts (actually from the tree) after the tour. oh yeah.. and we heard some more stories about hippies in the rainforrest. walking bear foot through the jungle to get to our kayaks was great!! spiders and lizzards and ants are my friends now!!! on the way back to cairns we stopped at some creeks and had a swim in a clear mountain creek .. that was beautiful... the daintree NP is definitely worse a visit!!
