Chillagoe Caves
Chillago is a couple of hours drive west of Mareeba. It is a little tiny town which is well known for the dinosaur skeleton which was discovered in 1999 and mining. But it also has some incredible caves. We joined a tour for two of these caves which we thoroughly enjoyed. The stalactite and stalagmite formations in the limestone caves is breathtaking. The last cave we went through had some very small openings which we had to crawl through. Lucky we hadn’t put on too much weight otherwise we might have got well and truly stuck!

Tomorrow we will drive to the beaches north of Cairns and have a look around there and then the next day will be heading south – probably to Milaa Milaa. (Apparently there are some waterfalls which we didn't see on our way up!)
