Cooktown to Cape Tribulation : 9/10

We left Cooktown and travelled down the Bloomfield track through the Daintree to Cape Tribulation.
Went on a couple of Boardwalks through the different areas: the Wet Tropics World Heritage Area,of which the Daintree is part. we saw the lowland rainforest, swamps and mangroves.
I've put in a lot of small photos of this area:










We continued on to our luxury stop for the night staying at the Ferntree Rainforest Lodge, which was an eco friendly resort in the heart of the coastal rainforest.
Fruit bats ensuring they are hanging around to wake you early

Rainforest around our lodge, complete with fauna and noises

The restaurant for dinner and breakfast was set between one of the pools and the rainforest. An experience worth trying if you get the chance.
