Tropical Shithole
October 28, 2002 Cairns, Australia

This place may be tropical, but a nice place to spend your holiday it's not. There is no beach, just mudflats, and the town is characterless and dumpy. You don't come here to see the town, though. You come here for the Great Barrier Reef. I'm a bit nervous about diving, so I found a company that will let me try it in a pool for 15 minutes tomorrow for free. I also changed my flight to Bali to Singapore instead. The lady warned me that I will need an onward ticket, so I'm not sure what I will do about that.

Man, you just missed that Bali nightclub bombing, didn't you. That's creepy.
