Port Douglas - Nth Queensland -24th June - 4th July

We had a great holiday in Port Douglas. It's beach goes on forever. We stayed at my sisters holiday home with her son Alex. A beautiful place only 100m from the famous 4 Mile Beach. Adele enjoyed Alex's company and they were quite a pair. He looked after her like a big brother. We enjoyed our holiday with my sister and Alex. Adele loved the beach and the coconut trees on the beach. It was funny to see her get so excited whenever she spotted the beach - she would just leap out of our hands.
