Cooktown
Today was a quiet day spent looking around Cooktown. There is a lovely art gallery in town which
we visited (Kuku Bulkaway) which features aboriginal art. We would have loved
to have bought one piece which was in blues and greens featuring cassowaries.
For some reason, even though Darryl loved it, he wouldn’t let Merril buy it! It
may have been the $2000 price tag? It would have looked superb in our entry.
<Sigh>
On Alison’s recommendation, we went on a sunset cruise. Wow
– how lovely. So relaxing. It was a small intimate cruise with only 10 people.
It was like going on a boat trip with a friend rather than a tour. What a
lovely way to spend an evening. The tour guide explained some history of the
area while cruising around. We spotted a crocodile – although no opportunity to
photograph him as he dived into the water as we approached. After watching the
sun setting over the beach, we enjoyed a lovely cheese platter while anchored
in 2 mile creek.
