Rain, rain go away!

We have arrived in Port Douglas Australia, the gateway to the Great Barrier Reef.  We were the first to depart the ship this morning (when it was pouring rain) and it looked like our connection to the flight was going to be a little tight, but fortunately the flight was delayed (because it was pouring rain).  

Didn't see much from the plane because we were above the clouds (which were pouring rain), and we landed in Cairns close to on-time, although the luggage got pretty wet when they offloaded it (because it was pouring rain), but we got sorted and on the bus to Port Douglas.  

We are at an absolutely beautiful, gorgeous, lush tropical resort, the Sheraton Mirage. I'm going to post a couple of pictures below, and as you can see, it's still pouring rain.

Great sand entry pool outside our room!

Tom bravely decided to take the shuttle into the town of Port Douglas which we briefly saw on the way in, but I have decided to stay at the resort, put my feet up, rest my knee and relax.  

Tomorrow we go for our snorkel trip to the reef; pray for no rain! 🌞☀️🌞
