On the way to Cairns, one of the activities recommended to us was the SkyRail, a gondola ride over rainforest. Sitting in a gondola and riding over lots of "untouched" tropical rainforest was nice, but we didn't see much other than the tops of trees and the occasional butterfly.



Here's the brochure. Looks pretty cool, right?



This is what most of the ride looked like.



A muddy river.



The gondola dropped us off for a closer look at Stoney Creek Falls.

The gondola finally took us out of the rainforest, through the mist, and down the mountain. The end of the ride.

Here's his bum.
