        Despite all the rain Cape Tribulation/Daintree/Bloomfield Track are all looking fantastic! 
We are going through to Emmagen Creek everyday no problems with flooding. Cassowary's are being sighted regularly, two crocodiles on the River yesterday as well as Boyds Forest Dragons and Buff Breasted Paradise Kingfishers from New Guinea on their breeding migration.Chillagoe Caves &amp;amp; Outback tour is operating Monday, Wednesday &amp;amp; Friday's, and the outback is green &amp;amp; looking fantastic. Very little rain during the day &amp;amp; not as hot as here on the coast. We are going to Granite Gorge at present instead of the Wetlands as access in is closed for a few weeks due to some flooding earlier this week. Lots of Kangaroos, Wedge Tail Eagles even the odd sighting of the Albino Kangaroo! We are also doing the Trezkin or Donna Caves as the Royal Arch is closed at present, so a reasonable level of fitness is required due to stairs to climb up to the cave entrance.
