Yes we are actually so pale in comparison to the majority of the people here that I believe we may actually be frightening to some. However half the island of Ireland also seems to be in Cairns at the moment so the 'beach' (imported sand on non-crocodile infested pool) is full of people as ghostly as we are. We have enjoyed the last two days sleeping in, walking into town, laying in the sun, and eating ice cream. Tomorrow we head out to the great barrier reef, turns out our camera has an 'underwater' mode...excellent. We are doing a 2-day 1-night snorkeling trip, so we'll let you know how sleeping on the reef goes (pray for calm weather!). We're sneaking our own bottle of wine aboard for a little treat after dinner.
Margaret is still afraid of the water. But she has snorkeled before, so she will be fine once she sees the fish swimming around and gets that permanent grin on her face :)

Hey um... Ya know. You really need to come home for that labor audit. It will only take a few minutes and then you can get back to your pet sitting.
You're not fooling anyone with this vacation "smoke and mirrors". Australia, yeah right. Anyone can copy and past photos from Lonely Planet.
