Cairns - Part 2

When the rates at our Cairns hotel went up substantially for the weekend, we sought better value at the more centrally-located Novotel Cairns Oasis. This hotel is only two blocks from the shops and waterfront, and is a great place for just $111.00 per night. I don't mind not having breakfast included - I've had a hot breakfast for the last four mornings. The room, pool and deck area are lovely:





From the hotel we walked to the Cotter's markets at the waterfront which have lots of arts and crafts if you like that sort of thing:

There is a tree near the hotel which contains waht seems to be hundreds of massive bats. There are two hanging next to each other in the upper right of the picture:
