Kuranda

The old WWII US Navy R&R hospital has been turned into a busy pub so we decide to have lunch here and the passing parade of tourists (mostly Japanese honeymooners) provides us with a colourful afternoon at leisure. We visit the railway station with its jungle of tropical plants (nothing has changed there except the outrageous prices of the souveniers and the $80 return trip from Cairns) and colourful travellers.
