Day 5 - Cairns

We were up early to catch the train up the mountain to Kuranda.  A great trip up there with some incredible sights.

We came down on SkyRail and got close to the Rainforest from above.  Again, some spectacular sights. The are two stations on the way down where you can stop and have a look around. The informative boardwalk tour at Red Peak Station was the best!
