5/30-31 Darwin sweats and cairns showers

What a pleasant surprise! Tine and I ended up both at the same hostel and randomly have the same flight to cairns the next day!
Once again I did the same thing I always seem to do on my free days... Sleep off a hangover, laundry, call mom and wander the town aimlessly. At least this time I had someone to meet back up with later. Darwin was discustingly hot and humid, the kind of day as soon as you get out of the shower and dry off you feel like you need another shower... So tine and I hung out pool side most of the afternoon, she was looking smoking in her bikini trying to bronze up her pale Danish skin while I was chasing the shade to I didn't burn haha. Later the 2 of us headed for the wharf to get some fresh seafood for dinner. It was fun to finally get lost with someone else! It's the best! We had a great night, dare I say romantic, we sat on the wharf's edge and there were lights shining into the water so you could see fish when a fry or something "accidently" fell in, huge fish and later dolphins were playing there too. We split our meals she had a great platter of fish and chips and I had the mix basket of calimari, shrimp, fish and crab... All over a couple beers. Took our time walking back (getting only a little lost) and even stopped for icecreams. Meant to be to bed early since our flight was at 5am pickup at 3 but we were having too much fun.
Didn't even feel like I fell asleep, should have just stayed up all night having fun and not paid for a room. The flight went well, we were able to change seats and sit next to each other.., not that it mattered though we both slept the whole flight haha. But that's where our paths parted, I was staying in cairns but she was headed north to port Douglas to meet up with her cousin at a resort. It was fun to travel with tine, she's very positive, a great smile, very interesting and smart, I can't wait to visit her in Copenhagen.
Cairns didn't have the best weather, assuming it was only cloudy I went fir a walk to downtown about 2kms from my hostel... But halfway there it started to pour rain! Grrr... Here I am in paradice on a water front board walk running for cover! Darn tropics! :-) didn't do much the rest of the day, chilled out, played on the Internet and caught up on sleep and prepared for my jungle adventure!
