Four of us left about 8.30am to fill up the hire car with petrol to take it back to the airport, while the others were taking a taxi at 9am. We all arrived at the airport at around the same time and queued to drop our baggage off.
Once that was done, we went through security to have some brekky. The flight was delayed by 45 minutes so we amused ourselves as best as we could before thenflight was called. It was a full flight so Alicea and my plan of picking aisle and window seats in the hope of having a free seat between us didn't work.
The flight was uneventful and we landed in Cairns at around 2pm.
After collecting our luggage we waited for the courtesy bus to the car rental pick up and, once all the cars were sorted, we drove to Newell Beach.
The house is magnificent and the setting is beautiful. All the bedrooms have en-suite, and ours (chosen after a random draw) has a big spa bath.
We were met by Hans, who owns the company that manages all the properties. He showed us around and also booked a meal for us at a local restaurant call Mojo's.
Mark and I drove to Woolworths in Mossman to get some brekky supplies and once we returned we went for a really nice meal at Mojo's (stopping at a bottleshop on the way).
After the meal, we returned to the house for the night.
