Road flooding

Last Sunday my attempt to make it from Mission Beach to Cairns was cut short at El Arish. The rivers were rising, visibility was nil and it would have been impossible for me to make it home again. Luckily the rain has eased and the roads are now open, i might have better luck this sunday.

Having some perspective

One of the things we understand here at Mission Beach Information Station is just how important your holiday is, that there has been a lot of time, effort and money gone in to the planning and actual event. We also know that sometimes the best laid plans go awry....this is where its really important not to lose perspective, to go with the flow, to be flexible and be willing to change your plans at the drop of a hat, because you are on holidays and you want to have fun!
