Today we drove up the coast to Cape Tribulation. It was a beautiful drive through the rainforest, and included a ferry crossing over the Daintree river. What a great day to spend our last day in Australia!

| These (green / weaver) ants were EVERYWHERE |
 |
| Learning about the rainforest |
 |
| Cockroach, ewwww! |
 |
| More rainforest! |
 |
| Watch out for the stranger fig (if you are a tree) |
 |
| Despite many signs like this, we never saw a cassowary :( |
 |
| On the plus side, that also means we didn't hit one with the car |
 |
| Pretty! |
 |
| WHEN JELLYFISH ATTACK |
 |
| Ryan found some coral |
 |
| These weird patterns were all over the beach. They were made by many little balls of sand |
 |
| We finally spotted the tiny crabs that were depositing the sand out of holes they dug. So cool! |

Looks like ryan got himself an "aussie" hat! Love it! Glad you didn't see smucked cassowaries!
