Rafting the Tully


WEdnesday...I am staying at Gilligan's hostel and it is so nice!! There is a pool and the cafe area is incredible as well. This morning we were up at 5:30 am to catch a bus out to Tully. I white water rafted down the river for 5 hours. The rainforest around the river in Northern Queensland was to die for! The Tully is one of the most technical rivers in the country. Our group was lots of fun because it was just the 7 of us and we made fools of ourselves being "American" (loud and obnoxious). WE did our "Go Dawgs" cheer at the bottom of every tough rapid. The water was a little chilly, but you get used to it. We never flipped but we got lodged in some pretty dodgy places in the rocks. I have some cool pictures that I will load soon!
