I woke up early in the morning. After breakfast, I walked on the beach. It was still so blue, the blue water, the fine sand. It was still early, and there were almost no footprints on the beach. There were also some undersea creatures buried in the sand. Yunluo and Anqingju Anqingju found 4,5 starfish, and many small cuttlefish...

Then we took a bus through the tropical rainforest to the dunes and prepared to slid the sand. The dunes were about 60 or 70 meters high. Then everyone carried a wooden board and climbed up the dunes. The driver waxed your board on it, and then slid down. The speed was very fast, at 50 or 60 kilometers per hour.

Many people can slide far away, and it is pitiful to Yun Luo. There are no moving cells at all. If you slide halfway, you will brake, then fall out and smash the flat sand dunes into a big nest. Yun Luo was thinking at the time how Yun Luo got the full mark in the middle school entrance examination... But it is still very fun, although Yun Luo was covered in bruises after sliding.

After lunch, I will freely move on the island to see the scenery and other things. It’s really good, I won’t say much.

Yunluo’s itinerary on the Gold Coast was really great. I went to Warner Bros. Movie World in the morning, which is a theme park covering an area of ​​1.68 square kilometers. It’s a bit like Happy Valley, but it’s much more fun than Happy Valley. Since it’s a movie world, Yunluo really experienced the movie here.

The live-action version of the speed stunt is super thrilling, full of the smell of motor oil and gasoline. Yunluo saw a live-action performance for the first time and felt one word: It’s a pity that I can’t share it with everyone. I can’t tell the feeling of the photo, Yunluo was recorded in the video.

Then there is a 4D movie. Yunluo has never seen it before. In fact, Yunluo has never even seen it in 3D. There are a lot of movie tickets. But I didn’t have much interest. Every time I went to watch a movie, it was because the movie tickets were about to expire... There were also many cartoon characters in it, who were lined up to take photos, and Yunluo also went to do a few photos.

Then I went to Fantasy World, which is also a theme park. There are several theme parks on the Gold Coast, all of which are super awesome. But due to time constraints.

Yunluo went to these two most distinctive ones. Here, Yunluo finally saw kangaroos, koalas, emus, etc., and even took a photo of the koala. In fact, it was not smelly. The hair was so comfortable and so well-behaved, but it was a bit heavy.

But, the photo taken by Yunluo and An Qingju of Yunluo is really terrible. It's a pity. It's said that this is the tallest jumper in the world. Of course, Yunluo went to sit on it, 120 meters. To be honest, it's not scary at all. It just went up and then came down. Yunluo thought it would jump a few more times.

After leaving the Dreamland, I took the most luxurious yacht on the Gold Coast. This self-paid project is really expensive, $138. It is only over an hour. It is said that the yacht is $7 million, and the decoration inside is very luxurious, with three floors. The Gold Coast is very famous for the sea. The moment I drove out of the harbor, the clouds fell deeply, it was spectacular and gorgeous. I won’t say much. The picture above.

Get off the yacht and visit the water church. This is a church specially used for marriage. Once the newlyweds book, they will sail out of the sea to hold their wedding. It is really romantic, but the price is not cheap.

The first impression I saw on the streets of Cairns was the green and bright sunshine. Speaking of sunshine, the Australian sunshine was really great, and it always made people feel so comfortable. But it also brought a problem, that is, the ultraviolet rays are too strong, so the prevalence of skin cancer in Australia has always been very high.

In order to avoid sunburn, you must apply sunscreen. An Qingju didn't care at first, but she got sunburn after half a day. The back of her neck and arms were red, and it hurts when they touched. Fortunately, An Qingju and Yunluo brought some mint cream, which was very effective in treating sunburn. That afternoon, An Qingju bought a straw hat, and applying sunscreen was more active than Yunluo. It seems that sunburn is really painful.

There are many barbecue grills in the park along the coast of Cairns, and people can often see bbqs there, which is said to be free to use. It is so pleasant to eat barbecue chunks while looking at the sea view.

The open-air swimming pool on the coast. There is no beach in the city of Cairns. The beach is composed of wetlands. It is a paradise for birds and tourists cannot enter. In order to make up for the regret that people cannot go into the sea to swim, the local area specially built this huge open-air swimming pool.

The casino is located on the first floor of the hotel, and the top floor is a large tropical greenhouse. The hotel offers a 24-hour buffet, with a rich variety and a good taste, but the price is very affordable. The casino provides free coffee and other beverages, and the service is quite in place.

A large number of restaurants and bars are gathered on a coastal street in Cairns. There is a food court opposite the open-air swimming pool, which is relatively affordable. An Qingju and Yunluo settled lunch here at noon on the first day. An Qingju asked for a kangaroo meat set meal, while Yunluo asked for a crocodile meat set meal.

Kangaroo meat looks a bit like beef in both the same way. Unexpectedly, the crocodile looks rough and thick on the surface, but the meat is very tender, a bit like fish meat.

The taste was very delicious. In the next few days, An Qingju and Yunluo tasted another Australian-specific meat-emu meat. Emu is a big bird that looks very beautiful, but its meat is old and hard, and it is not delicious.

Cairns is a tourist city with a lot of souvenir shops. Generally, these stores sell various small handicrafts and plush toys, and also sheep oil. Speaking of sheep oil, it seems that most people who travel to Australia will buy some and bring them back to China. An Qingju and Yunluo found that the cheapest ones sold in the supermarket.

It only costs 2 Australian dollars, and the average store costs about 4 Australian dollars, while a store in Sydney Chinatown that looks like it mainly serves tour groups actually sells for 7 Australian dollars. Some other products are similar, so even if you are taking a group tour, it is best to go to the supermarket if you are aware of it, and you can buy a lot of affordable things.

The city area of ​​Cairns is not big, and even if you walk one day, you will basically walk around. There is a large shopping mall in the west of the city. An Qingju and Yunluo went to the supermarket inside and bought some fruits and dried fruits and brought them back to the hotel to eat. The vegetables, fruits and various meats inside are very fresh, and corresponding to the average monthly salary of AU$34,000, it is still very cheap.

Hawaiian nuts - Australia's specialty - Yunluo's favorite. The taste is so fragrant, and there are many flavors: abalone, honey, mustard, salt-baked, spicy, etc., which makes people unable to stop.

If you ask what you should not miss when you go to Australia, Yunluo believes that it must be the Great Barrier Reef. The Great Barrier Reef is the largest and longest coral reef group in the world, one of the seven natural landscapes in the world, and the most important reason why An Qingju and Yunluo chose to visit Australia this time. It is said that they went to Cairns to see the Great Barrier Reef, but in fact the range of the Great Barrier Reef is very large.

It is 2011 kilometers long, with a widest place of 161 kilometers, and the closest place to the coast is only 16 kilometers, while the farthest place is more than 241 kilometers. The ones farther from the coast can be called the outer barrier reef, while the ones relatively close can be called the inner barrier reef. Overall, the outer barrier reef is farther from the coast and has relatively good landscape, which is especially suitable for diving.

An Qingju and Yunluo first chose to take the Silver Shuo (quick private lver) to visit the Outer Barrier Reef. The Pier of the Silver Shuo is in Port Douglas, about an hour's drive from Cairns.

As the first day, An Qingju and Yunluo had already booked a one-day tour group in advance. The bus from the tour company picked up An Qingju and Yunluo at the hotel at the agreed time, and then went to other hotels to pick up other tourists who participated in the tour group. Soon the bus was full.

An Qingju and Yunluo also set out towards Port Douglas. There was a section of the coastal highway, which looked out from the car window on the right, and the scenery outside was particularly beautiful. Unfortunately, when I went there, An Qingju and Yunluo sat on the left. I originally wanted to take some beautiful photos when I returned, but the driver changed the route when I returned.

The cost of this one-day tour program chosen by An Qingju and Yunluo is 189 Australian dollars per person. It includes drinks, buffet lunch, snorkeling, and semi-submersible boats. If you want to take a helicopter to catch the Great Barrier Reef from the air, you need to pay a separate fee of 150 Australian dollars per person. You have to hurry up and find the staff to book, and you may not be able to queue up if you are late.

To take a helicopter, you have to take the boat next to it to another separate platform not far away. The staff on the boat will provide tourists with simple safety training, mainly saying that you must not approach the helicopter from the tail of the helicopter, otherwise you may be caught in the propeller

There are fish passing by the semi-submersible boat from time to time, and there are a few turtles that are very cute, but unfortunately they can’t take a picture. In fact, if you want to truly appreciate the charm of the underwater world, it is best to dive. No matter how good the photos are, they cannot give people the wonderful feeling of being between the fish and being close to the beautiful corals.

An Qingju and Yunluo came to Cairns for thousands of miles, and it was only one day to go to the Great Barrier Reef. So on the third day of Cairns, An Qingju and Yunluo took the Great Adventures to visit Green Island. Green Island is one of the many islands in the Great Barrier Reef. Of course, beautiful corals are indispensable around it. The white sand beach of Green Island is also very charming, making it a very suitable destination for snorkeling.

The price of a day trip to Green Island is 109 AUD per person, including: snorkeling, punt boats, green island sightseeing, drinks, and buffet lunch.
