After our three-day adventure in Sydney that involved rain, rain, and even more rain, travelling to Cairns where it was sunny and hot was a pleasant surprise. We arrived in Cairns after another fun-filled three hour plane ride. After arriving at the airport and boarding yet another bus, we travelled into town to our final hotel. The group briefly changed and then we headed to the local pools that were located about ten minutes from our hotel. We tried to swim in the pools, but only a couple of us were able to brave the surprisingly cold waters to actually enjoy swimming. When the cold became unbearable, we grouped together and just stayed in the area around the pools playing soccer and rugby. Finally, it became time to go out and eat. Our groups were all given free range of the city to find a place to eat. Our group found a steakhouse where we hung out and watched Arnaud complete an interesting food challenge. To cap off the day, we went to the hotel and hung out by the pool. Day one in Cairns was the most relaxing day we'd had thus far on the trip and we enjoyed every minute of it.
