Friday in Cairns
Today Bruce took me into Cairns to experience Rusty’s Markets. Fantastic. The amount and variety of fresh produce must be seen to be believed. I was expecting a commercial type market full of clothes for teenage girls experience, and I couldn’t have been more wrong. The day had proved to be a rather unpleasant sultry 38c and the markets themselves were quiet warm, but we found a relatively quiet seat near a most fantastic coffee stall which made superb iced lattes. We ate steamed pork buns and tasty spring rolls prepared by a delightful spanish woman, and followed those down with sweet and refreshing apricots and cherries. I found some exquisite lacquered Asian pieces for Beki and Ryan, and the most unusual wood crafted tea candle holders for Karen. Then to finish off this great day Bruce prepared a meal of muki miuki fish steaks and prawns with a lovely Ginger sauce, stir fried veggies and I made us mangoes in a lime sauce which we enjoyed with ice cream.
