June 22, 2010 - Another day of high winds forced us to search for non-dive associated fun. Unfortunately, in the sleepier-than-expected town of Port Douglas, there's not much to do. We hadn't yet checked out Four Mile Beach, so we decided to rent (or 'hire', if you're speaking Aussie lingo) some bicycles, pack a lunch, and head for the beach.Safety first. Although we have yet to see any form of police presence, helmets are 'strictly enforced'. This is especially nice when you're using rental helmets. Ick.
Aaandddd we're off!
But it's not long until we realize that 1) we're hungry and 2) the winds are against us. So, we take a detour to a nearby park for lunch. Our detour then turned into a search for massages and beers at a local pub. Whatever, we're on vacation right?
After many detours, we hit the beach again to watch the sunset. Unfortunately, it's high tide. This makes the sand wet and the space that we actually have to bike on very very narrow. Oh well. Back home for some more World Cup :)
