Port Douglas

We organised a later checkout of 11 so we could do a bit of shopping. We packed most of the van up and headed to 'The Good Guys' to buy a new laptop. The one we brought with us is about 6 years old and ready to retire. We also got some crab pots from Rays Outdoors. We went back to the caravan park to get the van and check out. We stopped in at the Factory Outlets to get some new sunglasses for Rick and then headed out of Cairns to our next destination - Port Douglas, which is only an hour north. The coastal road, Captain Cook Highway is very scenic. We arrived at Port Douglas around 1.30pm and checked in to Pandanus Caravan Park - no Cairns Coconut Resort but close to town and walking distance from the beach. We had a bite to eat and drove in to town to pick up some mail at the post office and have a walk around. We did some grocery shopping and headed back to the van for dinner. Rick fired up the new computer.
