Apparently the long walk didn't tire us enough. After a few hours of splashing and lazing around the luxurious hotel pool, we felt re-energised and decided to drive to Cairns for a late dinner that same evening.
I don't know whether it was the lure of the 'fill-your-plate' meal or the thought of a 40-minute massage for $15 that was stronger but either way it got us driving...
Mig fell asleep on the drive (seems like he was the only one exhausted) so by the time we got to Cairns he was knocked out. We know a golden opportunity when we see it! We carefully transferred him to his stroller without waking him and headed straight for the massage stalls at the Cairns Night Market! As he slept peacefully in his stroller, the rest of us indulged in massages. All of us had a 10-minute foot spa (more like a foot soak), then Hubby and I continued on for a 30-minute full-body massage while the girls had a leg and foot massage. It was the best treat after our day of 'hard' walking all for a grand total of $60! (In hindsight, I should have just skipped the dinner that followed and gone for another round of massages).
Feeling refreshed (or groggy) from our massages we drifted off to the food court for the 'fill your plate' meal we had on the first night. After dinner, we walked around the Esplanade but it started to rain. Happy that we had done what we wanted, we decided to call it a night and head back to Port Douglas.
