Title: Day out from Cairns 18th of September 2010

We had a great day out Saturday. We took the scenic railway to Kuranda.  Went to a zoo to see Koala bears, Wollabys, snakes, crockodiles and more.

We then went to Tajapuaki, a cultural village where the customs of the Aboriginals were demonstrated.  We got a lesson in playing a Didgerydoo and throwing a boomerang.
