ok....bit more of an update...
Today we saw most of the sights of Cooktown.....there isn't a huge lot! Being Beryl's birthday, she got to choose what we did, so we started off the day by doing the washing, then about 11:30 we headed to the information centre which is in the Botanic Gardens. The reason we went there because in the same location, is a cafe called Vera's which does devonshire tea! That ended up being out lunch. From there we went out to the Captain Cook museum, then came home to take the washing in,and then to Grassy Hill for views over all Cooktown. It was a spectacuar view, but was very windy. From there it was tothe Arts and Crafts store (where else?), and then to the Croc Shop for a sticky beak. We called in to the spot where Jimmy Cook repaired the Endeavour on the shore of the river. Home again to get changed, then out to dinner. I am sure Beryl had a good day, in fact, she just said she did.
We are off tomorrow to do the Bloomfield Track, and ending up for a night or two at Cape Tribulation. I expect we may not have internet service there..
Keep those comments coming...
Here are some photos from today:

 A couple of butterflys at the Botanic Gardens.

 It is amazing how many butterflys we have seen in the last week or so. K can tell you the names of these butterflys, but seeing he has gone to bed, I cannot ask him.

 The James Cook museum. It was quite interesting.

 The view from grassy Hill. I do have a 360 deg view if you want to see it!

 On top of the hill!

 Jimmy boy..

 Beryl's b'day dinner out down by the water. Eye fillet (K & I), Rack of Lamb (Marg), Thai Coral trout (Wendy), and Grilled Coral Trout (Beryl). All very nice, but the service was useless! Good thing we made up 80% of the diners!

This guy landed 3m from us at our tent. Our tent is tied to the fence he is sitting on. The wildlife has been great this week.
