Cairns to Port Douglas 16th August

We ended up enjoying two weeks in marina world at Bluewater Marina which is located up the Half Moon Creek just past Yorkey's Knob.  In essence it was located up a mangrove creek but it was a very nice mangrove creek.  The locals are lovely and with the hire car we were able to get out and enjoy all the tourist attractions that Cairns and its surrounds has to offer. My eye recovered very quickly and was given the all clear when I went back to the clinic on Wednesday which meant we could get out for a kite board at Yorkeys Knob which we did.  During our two weeks we managed to get out for a kite on about 4 occasions which was great.  The spot is really nice for kiting but we did find the waves a bit challenging to start with as we are far more used to flat water kiting but quickly got into the swing of it all and really ended up enjoying some kite surfing!!  At the end of each day we had a down winder to get us back to the car park which was always heaps of fun and much easier tha
