It's Christmas Eve! After an early morning swim and brekky I did a very quick Skype with John before Alicea, Anna, Steve and I popped into Port Douglas to pick up the meat, seafood and some other supplies.
After a quick sandwich, Caroline and I drove to Cape Tribulation to go horseriding. The trip took just over an hour and we had to take a ferry across the Daintree river. We arrived early and had a cold drink while we waited to be picked up.
The riding was superb. We went through the rainforest and onto Cape Tribulation beach. We trotted and cantered at some points too, which was great. My horse Topaz, was lovely and Billy, Caroline's horse tended to take off a bit during the cantering.
There were only two others on the rid (apart from the guides) who were two young girls from northern England.
Once we were all back home (Mark went biking where he ate a green ant apparently) we all made pizzas for dinner before watching the Polar Express. When the film had finished, Alicea brought out her own "Santa's Bell" and rang it, much to the amusement of everyone.
